A Multivariate Analysis of the Determinants of Urban Quality of Life in the World's Largest Metropolitan Areas
The urban living standard index of the Population Crisis Committee, based on 10 indicators of urban quality of life for the 98 largest metropolitan cities of the world, has been used in this paper to create three groups of cities: those having high, medium, and low standards of living.
