Toronto is officially the best city in the world, according to the Economist

Here's the usual target demographic for "best of city" lists..
If it lists a bunch of 2nd or 3rd tier cities with vanilla safe neighborhoods then it's probably targeted towards young first time home owner families and real estate investors.
If it's in the Economist, Wall street Journal, or Forbes then it's for the "upwardly mobile" salary man or woman. Toronto is a mindless office drone city so it fits the bill.
If it's on some AARP or old people's mag/site then it's for wealthy pensioners. This is especially true if Belize, Costa Rica, or some other old people's haven is mentioned.
Not a single one of these lists is for the bachelor professional or location independent income earner. None of these lists give two fucks about our demographic.
The audience is overwhelmingly SWPL types who can't even begin to think outside the box.
