Book Description
The concept of livability is to measure the quality of life and wellbeing of residents across all counties, cities/towns and zip codes using neighbourhood level data and analytical methods. Ultimately, it aims to answer the question: which counties, cities/towns and zip codes offer the most suitable conditions for investment, business and individual successes? The rating of a county, city/town and zip code is based on its position on the distribution of scores in comparison with all locations. The key dimensions that directly and indirectly affect the quality of life and wellbeing are Housing, Employment, Education, Income, Socio-Economic Wellbeing, and Access to Transport. Evidence-based strategic decisions likely increase the chance of success and unlock new opportunities. The USA Livability Rating is an attempt to systematically assess and compare the key economic and social dimensions for all counties, cities/towns and zip codes in the United States of America, to provide factual evidence for informed strategic decisioning when location factor is important.
