The New Zealand major cities of Auckland and Wellington were ranked high in a worldwide survey on the quality of life on offer in cities, Radio New Zealand reported on Wednesday.
The New Zealand largest city of Auckland is 5th on the list of 215 cities and the capital of Wellington is 12th.
Zurich of Switzerland tops the list, which was created by the international company Mercer. It ranked cities on political and social environment, public services and transport.
The company said Auckland and Wellington enjoy a stable political climate and have world-ranking natural environment, housing, amenities and consumer goods.
However, they were not placed higher because of issues such as public transport and the number of international flights.
