Our dear capital is on the podium of the best cities in the world according to the latest ranking from Resonance Consultancy – it takes 3rd place. But save your co-ops for later: Paris, although loyal to the top, leaves London on the throne. Ten years that the British city has dominated with an almost annoying regularity, as if Big Ben was setting the pace for an endless reign.
Paris, in the big leagues (but still not queen)!
“Resonance has once again analyzed the top cities in the world's largest metropolitan areas with populations over 1 million,” says Chris Fair, president and CEO of Resonance. “Our goal, for a decade, has been to offer the most complete and holistic approach to measuring and comparing the perception and performance of cities. » In short: we scan each metropolis, from concrete to selfies, and we give them a score by combining tangible data and the subjective impressions of 22,000 respondents in 31 countries. Paris ? It ticks all the boxes with its heritage, its gastronomy and its culture, but leaves it there. Meanwhile, London is grabbing everything: tourists, investors, and even the clouds and the rain become a marketing argument.
“By cross-referencing the destinations that come to mind when people think about where to live, work and travel with the rigorous assessment of places that Resonance has been conducting for nearly a decade, we have created a more comprehensive assessment of cities,” says Jason McGrath, executive vice president at Ipsos. Translation: perception is the crux of the matter. And on this, London is a step ahead, even in the rain.
And Paris, in all this? If it remains the undisputed European star, it observes from afar the 36 American cities which monopolize this top 100 to better confirm transatlantic hegemony. But ultimately, does Paris really need to be first? She inspires, intrigues, sometimes annoys, but always fascinates. And maybe that's his real superpower.
