Funniest news story on the news last night not sure where it was million dollar homes were sliding down a hill think it was Malibu. Anyway the woman being interviewed comment was hysterical, I just caught her saying something like "Malibu is the best place in the world to live, Malibu is the world" now how American is that comment. Classic. :lol

The criteria they use for picking the best places has little or no value to me.   If I added the criteria that is important to me then none of them would rank very high.

i'm with lasz2 here,
i was living in Munich a few years, yes it is a nice city, i then moved
to a very small town close to the swiss border. You know what, the
quality of live raised up, now i even have a swimingpool i couldnt aford
in munich. And Zürich is aprox 40km away if i need to visit a big city.

work on a car in the garage or side yard or let the grand kid play in a pool in the back yard or pick an orange off the tree... If you, the average person,  can't do that in a city then it shouldn't even rank.

I rank em by taxis.  If the place has more than one taxi it goes down a point for every taxi it has.   Parking meters drop it down too.
