Seoul ranked 111th for personal safety and 86th for quality of living in an annual survey of 215 cities, according to a survey by a global consulting firm.
In both sectors, Swiss and Germen cities were the dominant presence at the top but Seoul's ranking in Mercer's 2008 quality of living survey was a notch up from its previous survey.
Canadian and Australian cities, as well as New Zealand's Auckland and Toronto, ranked within the top 25.
In Asia, excluding Australia and New Zealand, Singapore topped the list, followed by the Japanese cities of Tokyo, Yokohama, Kobe and Osaka in that order.... |

Toronto is in New Zealand?
My last co-tchr thought that NZ was 'beside Canada'.  |
