Malta is (almost) the best place in the world for foreigners

Malta has been ranked as the second-best place in the world for foreigners to live by an industry survey of more than 14,000 respondents.  And while Taiwan was considered the better overall bet, the survey found that nowhere topped Malta when it comes to love. 70 per cent of expats in Malta are in a relationship, 64 per cent are delighted with their partner, and 44 per cent live here with a partner who is from a third country - double the global average.  The Expat Insider 2016 survey asked respondents to rate 43 different aspects of life abroad on a scale of one to seven, with topics ranging from the friendliness of locals to taxation and provision of services.  Malta ranked well in all quality of life subcategories, topping the list for leisure options and coming a close second to Costa Rica when foreigners were asked to rate their personal happiness.  Malta's second-place finish represents an improvement from last year's result, when the country finished third in the overall rankings. Ecuador, which topped the 2014 and 2015 editions of the survey, is now third.  Vietnam was this year's biggest mover, shifting a massive 24 places to come in 11th after finishing 35th last year.
