Toronto is the only N.A. city (not "cities") to make their 2012 list, falling from 4th in 2011 to 8th in 2012. Still that's better than any U.S. city. Meanwhile former multiple winner Vancouver no longer makes the list.

Economist redid the ranking criteria in 2012 - Hong Kong is #1. If you think HK is most livable, you are welcome to it.
Huh? First you tout this ranking when it serves your purpose, then claim it is flawed when someone throws it back in your face? Make up your mind.
