Montreal Was Ranked The 9th Best City In The World To Work From Home

Toronto came close but it missed out on the top 10.
Staff Writer

Since the pandemic has forced a lot of us to abandon our commutes and offices, a new study from Nestpick took a look at which are the best cities around the world to work from home. And our lovely city, Montreal, has ranked in the top 10 cities around the world. 

Montreal ranked ninth overall and had good scores on all the study's metrics including healthcare, equality, the standard of living, and availability of housing.

Toronto, meanwhile, came in at number 12, just missing out on a top 10 spot. Vancouver ranked quite low on the list, coming in at 39th overall. 

Other Canadian cities didn't even rank in the top 75.

Above Montreal are, from first to eighth place, Melbourne, Dubai, Sydney, Tallinn, London, Tokyo, Singapore and Glasgow.

"The last year has really proved to many companies that remote-working is not only a possibility but actually something that can be beneficial to everyone involved," Omer Kucukdere, Founder and CEO at Nestpick, said in a statement.
