Doesn’t the tube get very hot in the summer? The UK has very high taxes on airfares so even award tickets purchased with miles will have high costs which is why most frequent flyers will fly to France instead and take the train.
Chinese cities have good politics but the internet situation is a non-starter. (edit: Chinese cities have good subways! I made a freudian slip when writing).
Bangkok’s system is nice but not enough lines/coverage so you often need a Grab to supplement it. And the sidewalks are too dirty (I’ve been there 6 times so it’s not that I’m allergic to dirty sidewalks, but if I move somewhere I want to have clean sidewals)
Singapore has a very nice system but Singapore is so expensive (especially alcohol!).
Any muslim countries are a non-starter because they heavily tax alcohol to discourage consumption.
Alcohol is not too pricy in Japan, the 300 yen bar in Osaka is pretty great and it’s easy to meet friends any night. The subway system is good but the JR is too expensive compared to Jetstar or one of many many low cost carriers.
Seoul is also clean with good subway coverage, but Itaewon is too hilly if you like cycling and it takes forever to commute if you live on the other side of the city but still want the food in Itaewon.
Taipei is clean but too poor in all honesty. I expected better because of Taiwan’s dominance in tech but yeah. It does have a decent train system.
I love Malaysia but the KL train system doesn’t even go to Mont Kiara!
Sydney is a no go because AU TZ for video games is empty and many games don’t even put servers for Oceania.

To be fair - There's electric bikes instantly rentable all over the city that are perfect for dealing with hills - Itaewon is only a tiny part of the city and the huge majority of the remainder isn't nearly as hilly - Except for Middle-Eastern (and maybe traditional "US") food, all other kinds of cuisine have at least as good if not better options outside of Itaewon
