The Best Places to Live in the World…Tampa Real Estate Market News and More

Sometimes I enjoy stepping outside the Tampa Real Estate Market, to talk about real estate in other parts of the world.

Many Americans find themselves dreaming of living outside the United States someday. Increasing numbers of Americans are choosing to live in foreign countries, with quality of life , as one of the most influential factors in their decision-making process about where to live.

The latest rankings, from Business Week magazine, show the Best Places to live in the World.

1. Zurich, Switzerland

2. Vienna, Austria and Geneva, Switzerland(tie)

4.Vancouver, Canada

5. Auckland, New Zealand

6. Dusseldorf, Germany

7. Munich, Germany and Frankfurt, Germany (tie)

9. Bern, Switzerland

10. Sydney, Australia

Clearly, the Swiss and the Germans know a thing, or two, about creating a fabulous place to live! I lived close to Bern, so I can attest to the sweet life in Switzerland! I have been to all, but 3, of these places. If I could only select one of these amazing cities to live in, it would be a very difficult choice.

How about the U.S. rankings? The highest ranking city was Honolulu, Hawaii, which came in at number 28.

The lowest ranking city in the world? No surpriseBaghdad!

If you are dreaming of a life off shore someday, or just looking for a home in the Tampa Real Estate Market, contact me. As a Certified International Property Specialist, I can help you with the ideal property, anywhere in the world!
