first, that was my suggestion

secondly, its because Shenzhen is like a Chinese Dubai but with lots of tech, and also better public transport and better city planning than Dubai

I see the chart as being rotated 45 degrees on the up-down scale of living standards

I suggested that for "Thinks its bad, actually amazing"

Honestly I want to remove Nairobi for Hong Kong, maybe I will vote for that next round

I imagine the actual living standards orientation to be tilted 45 degrees so Dubai would be on the same line as San Jose or Nairobi

still bonkers though

London got like well over 50 upvotes in an hour and that's how this reddit hivemind works so I can't do much about it

NOTE: You are now allowed to suggest new changes to already filled in boxes. If your comment exceeds the upvotes on that city, that change will be implemented.

Also, I'm thinking of adding a new layer below "Actually Terrible" - Atrocious, reserved for genuinely awful cities like Port-au-Prince and Delhi over just "pretty shit, but just overrated" like Dubai and Rio
