The word city conjures up many images, drawn from personal experience and perhaps influenced by characterizations in film, literature, or other cultural expressions. Your expectation for how life should be lived may also come from multiple perspectives. Do citizens refer to a nostalgic past? Were things really better in the past? Is the economy attracting new residents? How is the city adjusting to the influx? In this Discussion, you define quality of life in a city through a particular perspective.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Read “The Secrets of the World’s Happiest Cities” and “Cities: Places Sacred, Safe, and Busy,” located in this week’s Resources area.
View the media in this week’s Resources area, Interdisciplinary Perspectives in Urban Studies.
By Day 3

Commerce
Public Health

History
In your post, be sure to:
