Mercer 2019 ranking of cities with highest quality of living : Lomé ahead of Abidjan, Lagos, Abuja and Addis-Ababa

(Togo First) - Once again, Togo’s capital maintains its rank of the 29th city with highest quality of life in Africa in Mercer’s 2019 index. In the index, Lomé is thus ahead of Abidjan, Addis-Ababa, Lagos, Abuja and Antananarivo.

Within the WAEMU, it is the third town behind Dakar and Cotonou that are respectively the 12th and 19th in Africa.

In the index, both at the African and global level, there is no noticeable change.

As exactly as it was in the 2018 edition, in the top 5 are Port Louis, Durban, Cape Town, Johannesburg and Victoria (in Seychelles).

At the bottom of the ranking in Africa are Conakry (41st), Kinshasa (42nd), Brazzaville (43rd), N’djamena (44th), Khartoum (45th) and Bangui (46th).

Let’s note that the quality of living ranking was based on criteria like socio-cultural, political and social environment, education, public services, transports, urban infrastructures, leisure, consumer goods, housing and the environment.
