While the scores have risen in some areas, the Economy indicators have continued to decline since last year. Of the 6 fields that make up the ranking, Tokyo's "Economy" score is placed 4th among the 48 cities surveyed. Indicators such as GDP growth, human resources, and corporate tax rates are at lower levels than in other major cities around the world. The report also pointed out the delays in development of workplace options.

Tokyo raised the scores from last year in the fields of "Environment" and "Accessibility". Tokyo was highly evaluated by the newly established indicator "cleanliness of urban space". By increasing the score in "International Freight Distribution", the ranking in the accessibility fields has risen by one rank from last year to the 7th place.
