Orlando Named 40th Best City In The World!

Hot on the heels of being named second most fun city in the U.S. by WalletHub, a new study has named Orlando one of the top cities in the world!

The global place branding advisor Resonance Consultancy, have announced the world's 100 top performing cities in their annual 2023 World's Best Cities Report, and Orlando has ranked as the 40th Best City in the World.

Resonance is a leading advisor in tourism, real estate and economic development, and its Best Cities rankings quantify and benchmark the relative quality of place, reputation and competitive identity for the world's principal cities with metropolitan populations of 1 million+.

They are lauded as the world's most thorough city ranking, based on original methodology that analyzes key statistics as well as user-generated reviews and online activity in channels such as Google, Facebook and Instagram.

Orlando came in at No. 40 in large part due to its high ranking in TripAdvisor reviews and of course the lure of the theme parks and attractions.

The company also highlighted the recent MCO expansion and increased airport connectivity as major contributors.

"The World's Best Cities rankings benchmark the overall performance of more than 250 cities around the world based on a wide variety of measures in order to identify the top 100 places to live, visit and invest," says Resonance President & CEO Chris Fair.
