Cities are alive. We show you how they're doing right now.
Live.City is an independent website that brings the live signals of the world's great cities — local time, weather, air quality, headlines, seismic activity and live cams — onto one fast, clean screen.
Why we built it
Checking on a city usually means opening five tabs: a clock, a weather app, an air-quality map, a news site and a webcam directory. Whether you're calling family abroad, planning a trip, managing a remote team or deciding where to live next, that's slow. Live.City puts those answers together and keeps them updating while you watch.
What we do
- Live city dashboards for 36 major cities, with more added every month.
- Tools to compare cities, track them on a live world map and save the ones you care about.
- Original guides that explain the data and help you plan moves and trips.
- Free relocation help that connects movers with vetted local professionals.
Our data principles
We use reputable open data sources — Open-Meteo, Wikipedia, the U.S. Geological Survey, the GDELT Project and OpenStreetMap — and credit them on every page. We tell you when data is unavailable instead of guessing, and we remind readers that live data is not a substitute for official alerts.
How we're funded
Live.City is free to use. We earn money from clearly labelled advertising (including Google AdSense), city sponsorships, introductions to relocation partners, and reader donations. Advertisers never influence our data or editorial guides.
