Dubai top ranked lfestyle destination!
Dubai ranked top for quality of life in new study | GulfNews.com

"Still, Dubai beats Geneva (47), Miami (48), San Francisco (55), Barcelona (57), Rome (72) and Kuala Lampur (77)."
Not sure which stats you're looking at? but according to the Full 2012 REPORT, Dubai sits at number 73... and above it are: Geneva (8 ), San Francisco (29, equal with Paris & Adelaide), Barcelona (40), Rome (52), Miami (66).

So, no. Dubai is not a veritable paradise on earth for quality of living !

See also: Mercer's 2012 Quality of Living survey and from which you'll note that Dubai isn't even listed in the top 50... keep on drinking the Kool-aid mate !
