i'm from germany and i would have put munich top places in the world as well. same with duesseldorf. but for both cities you should have money. if you don't have money i think it's better to live in berlin or so because these cities are expensive.
same with all other top spot cities. to live in vienna for example can cost you more rental than some people earn, just for a small apartment.
i think i have been in ~35 countries in my life and without the “wow how sick is that“ which you always have on vacation and just thinking which is the best to live they are right with countries like new zealand, germany, austria and australia.
personally i think sweden is fantastic as well and not only stockholm.
