4. Suggest one environmental, economic or social factor, not listed in the box above, that you would add as a criterion for liveability.
One social factor that I would add as a criterion for liveability is community engagement and social cohesion. Having strong community bonds and opportunities for people to engage with each other can greatly enhance quality of life and create a sense of belonging and connection to a place. It can also lead to a more harmonious and supportive community that works together to address common issues and improve the overall livability of the area.
