Singapore has maintained its position as the most liveable city in Asia for foreigners. Japan’s Tokyo and Osaka ranked second and fifth respectively.

The ECA's Location Ratings evaluate cities worldwide to assess the overall quality of living for expats in over 500 locations across the globe.

The ranking is based on various liveability factors, including availability of health services, housing and utilities, access to a social network, recreational and leisure facilities, infrastructure, climate, personal safety, socio-political tensions and air quality.
