Not too shabby.

There may be a lot of mud-slinging at the moment in the run up to the General Election, but there is some positive news for Dublin today.

Our fair city ranked pretty high on the 18th Mercer Quality of Living survey, coming in at an impressive 33rd in the world.

Vienna came out on top, as the best city in the world to live, beating off 229 other cities for the accolade.

Also in the top ten are Zurich, Auckland, Munich, Vancouver and Sydney.

London landed at 39th place, with Paris falling ten places due to safety concerns following last year’s terror attacks.

The top ten cities to live in are:
