Grok-Generated Livability Chart Puts Porto on Top, SF and NYC in Bad-Value Zone
sujingshen · x · 2026-10-14
A blogger used Grok to generate a 20-city livability scatter plot mapping rent+living costs as a share of median take-home pay against quality-of-life percentile. Best value: Porto, Split, Valencia, Prague, Lisbon, Tallinn. Premium but worth it: Vienna, Amsterdam, Zurich, Geneva, Oslo, Copenhagen. Bad value: NYC, LA, San Francisco and Hong Kong, where housing costs exceed 100-120% of median pay. A neat AI data-viz exercise, though the data rigor is Grok's own.
