Auckland has again been ranked the tenth most liveable city in the world.
The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) has released its report on 140 cities, and for the fifth year in a row Auckland rounded out the top 10.
Melbourne was found to be the planet's most liveable city, with Vienna and Vancouver taking the second and third positions respectively.
Wellington was the only other New Zealand city to be ranked, and was in 22nd place.
The report said the cities that scored best "tend to be mid-sized cities in wealthier countries with a relatively low population density."
New Zealand has a density of 16 people per square kilometre, half of the United States average, the EIU said.
