Mercer has designed an objective way of measuring quality of living for expatriates based on factors that people consider representative of quality of living. Once a year, Mercer conducts a quality of living study in more than 380 cities worldwide based on detailed assessments and evaluations of 10 key categories and 39 criteria or factors, each having coherent weightings reflecting their relative importance.
Among the criteria Mercer takes into account are economy, education, public transport and recreation. Crime statistics play a part as well, as do such issues as personal freedom and media vs. censorship.
