Auckland topped the ranking as the city remained open, and scored highly on metrics including education, culture and environment, said EIU.
Rounding out the top five were Osaka, Adelaide, Tokyo and Wellington; with Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane also in the top 10.
The other non Asia-Pacific cities to make an appearance in the top 10 were Zurich and Geneva in Switzerland, which traditionally score highly for standard of living.
To compile the index, each city was given a liveability ranking, which looked at 30 factors across five categories including stability, healthcare, culture, education and infrastructure. The impact of the pandemic has also been taken into account to the rankings, said EIU.
