La France - Top Country to Retire!

L'herbe est-elle donc toujours plus verte ailleurs?

According to a US magazine, France is the country with the best quality of life in the world. The magazine, International Living, produces every year a quality of life index. This year they ranked 194 countries using the nine following categories: Cost of Living, Culture and Leisure, Economy, Environment, Freedom, Health, Infrastructure, Safety and Risk, and Climate. France scored high marks across the board.

Interesting are the comments made by French people on Le Monde's blog. Some totally disagree with the results and in fact say they are ridiculous. However quite a few who happened to have lived in other countries admit that France is not so bad after all. Is it a case that the grass always appear greener on the other side?
