New York ‘best city for blokes to live, work and play’

MELBOURNE - New York is the best city in the world for blokes, a survey has claimed.

A poll by men’s website Askmen.com ranked 29 cities across the globe based on how good they are for men to live, work and play.

The survey was based on data that includes the number of vacation days, the ratio of men to women, the weather, the unemployment rate and new restaurant and club openings.

Melbourne took second spot, while Tokyo was ranked third.

Madrid and London rounded off the top five.

“We’re positioning the best cities that you can live in say for a year, somewhere exotic, with cultural options, and job opportunities as well, and also entertainment as a man, which includes clubs and fresh air options,” News.com.au quoted James Bassil, the website’s editor-in-chief, as saying.

Askmen.com ranks cities on seven factors-weather, cost of living, professional life, dating, night on the town, day on the town and this year’s newcomer, fresh air factor. (ANI)
