Global cities are also known for their cultural
diversity and their ability to attract talent from
around the world.
 Moretti (2012: 155) considers the United States as a
hyper-mobile outlier among relatively sedentary
developed countries (he compares his native Italy where
generations of the same family live in the same city, and
often in the same suburb or street), but in fact all English-
speaking countries have considerably higher mobility –
residential and job mobility, which are interconnected –
than anywhere else.
 Increasing similarities between towns and
cities regardless of their geographical
location. Some common features include the
following: Tall buildings – especially in the
central business district, tall buildings are
very common in most cities.
 A world city is seen in terms of powerful
politics, development of trade, culture and
education while a global city is considered to
be a center which includes not only trade,
influential political activity, educational and
cultural attributes but also located in there
headquarters of NCs and international.
 The importance and reputation of global
cities is largely built on their ability to attract
the key professional and innovative
workforce, as well as investors, but also to
have all the other necessary workers,
including those in the low-skilled, poorly-paid
service sector, at hand and on demand.
 The highly educated are the most footloose section of
the population: the professional middle classes,
having in general more control and autonomy in their
workplace, and a tendency to understand their
working life as a ‘career’, often change jobs and many
are ready to relocate to another city or country (Colic-
Peisker 2010; Moretti, 2012: 155). They move largely
by their own plan and career design. The lower-skilled
service workers often move jobs by necessity, but are
not as ready to move between cities and countries.
