What Are the Best Cities to Live in the World? GR Estates Presents the Favorites in 2023

InterNations, the leading global community for individuals living and working abroad, has recently unveiled its annual ranking of cities, a report highlighting the best places to live in the world in 2023.

This list, evaluating 49 cities based on the experiences of expatriates in the past year, is the outcome of a survey of over 12,000 expatriates representing 177 nationalities and residing in 181 countries or territories. Factors such as quality of life, ease of settling in, personal finances, and others were carefully considered. And which city secured the top spot on the entire list? None other than our cherished Málaga, with its Costa del Sol and myriad factors enhancing its quality of life.

Málaga: The Best City in the World to Live

This year, Málaga, with its splendid Costa del Sol, claimed the top position, solidifying its status as the best city in the world to live and work. Located in Andalusia, Málaga, one of the most captivating cities, enchants with its rich history, vibrant artistic and cultural scene (the birthplace of Picasso), pleasant climate, and exquisite gastronomy.

Málaga not only led the overall list but also excelled in local friendliness, climate and weather, and ranked first in the subcategories of work and leisure, as well as work-life balance. Expatriates praised the safety, affordable public transportation, numerous recreational options, and Málaga's vibrant social life. The only drawback: Málaga ranked 41st in the local job market.

Spain, overall, emerges victorious this year, with five cities among the top 20. Alicante and Valencia claimed the second and third positions, respectively, following Málaga, with shared attributes such as ease of settling in, high quality of life, and robust personal finances. According to InterNations, these cities offer welcoming cultures that enable a pleasant and affordable life.
