“In an era of digital nomads and flexible working, Mercer’s data shows that the most desirable destinations are those that blend a high quality of life and an affordable cost of living,” said Yvonne Traber, partner and Mercer’s Global Mobility Leader. “This presents a challenge for organizations and international assignees as they balance decisions related to relocation, investment and talent management.”
The only other city to make the top 10 from outside Europe is Vancouver, which is ranked equal seventh with Frankfurt to become the leading North American city. It’s included for providing its residents a unique blend of outdoor recreation and cosmopolitan living among other factors.
But the good news for Canadian cities doesn’t end in BC, as Toronto (13), Ottawa and Montreal (=20th), and Calgary (25) all rank well ahead of the best performing city in the United States, Boston, in 32nd place.
“As cities face extreme weather, economic fluctuations and other challenges, the rankings provide valuable insights for HR leaders at multinational organizations to better navigate the complexities of global mobility management and enhance the overall experience for their international workforce,” concluded Traber.
