I guess that DC has overtaken all other US cities in the past couple of years .

Good to hear that my home-town makes it to #2. Zurich was recently also qualified as the city with the highest living quality, which makes this an ideal place to be .

Recently I was in Bangkok, and found this to be a very safe city. Any information on its rank? Must come close behind Singapore.

Regards,
Peter
