Singapore

As discovered in a recent article on this site, Singapore tops the quality of life index. This means it’s arguably the best place to live in, in the whole world. It’s no secret that the economy is extremely stable, and there are few financial worries. Singapore jobs are also in high demand, because of the excellent economy. Loads of companies are starting to do business there, so more and more jobs are being created. It’s a very modern place to live, with the central city area full of skyscrapers and office buildings. The real estate market is booming in this South East Asia state, and living conditions are very high. Singapore also happens to be a very safe place to live and bring up children. There’s rarely any street violence, and the schools are remarkably good. All in all, it’s a quite phenomenal place to live.

United Kingdom

The UK is made up of four different countries; Wales, England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. The standard of living in the UK is very high; it’s amongst the best in Europe. London is the capital city of England and a focus point of the United Kingdom. There’s a very big business scene, with some of the world’s top companies setting up shop in London. All around the UK, you’ll find job opportunities. It’s a great place to move to if you’re looking for work. And, you can add to that the quality of education. There are tonnes of top class universities in the UK, making it a perfect place for keen students. Okay, the weather isn’t great, but I think free healthcare makes up for that, don’t you? With the NHS, UK residents can get a lot of their health care without having to pay a single penny. The United Kingdom is certainly a great place to live, and, you get a pick of four countries, so there’s a lot to explore too.

Canada

Canada is widely regarded as one of the best countries in the world to live in. This is down to a growing reputation, established over many years. People that live in Canada get to experience one of the best economies in the world. On top of this, they have an incredible healthcare system that sees a high life expectancy rate. Also, it’s seen as one of the safest and nicest places to visit. Many people go on holiday to Canada and never want to leave. For such a big country, it has a staggeringly low murder rate, which is a very good thing. Canadians are stereotypically known for being very apologetic and well mannered. So, you can bet that you’ll be living around friendly, amicable, people. When it comes to life satisfaction, this country has a very high rate. The majority of Canadian residents are more than happy with their life.
