Riyadh and Jeddah have improved on the Global Livability Index in an annual report prepared by the Economist Group's Economic Intelligence Unit (EIU).

The report ranks 140 cities based on an assessment of stability, culture and environment, education, health care, and infrastructure.

According to the index, Riyadh improved by three places to 103rd, and Jeddah advanced four places to 107 compared to 2022.

In a bid to achieve the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030, the Quality of Life Program seeks to include three Saudi cities among the world's top 100 on livability indexes by 2030.

The program aims at improving the quality of life of citizens, residents, visitors and tourists by providing new opportunities to take part in cultural, entertainment and sports activities.
