MELBOURNE has again been crowned the world’s most liveable city for the fourth year in a row.

Melbourne outperformed 139 cities to top the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Liveability Survey and achieved a perfect score in healthcare, education, sport and infrastructure.

It comes just one day after the Victorian capital was crowned the world’s friendliest city by Conde Nast Traveller magazine.
