AlphaGeo Report Ranks Chicago Most Resilient, South Asian Cities Least Resilient to Climate Risks
A recent AlphaGeo analysis of 72 global cities assessed climate disaster resilience by measuring physical exposure and adaptive capacity. Chicago ranked as the most resilient city, benefiting from low hazard exposure and strong infrastructure investments. Conversely, several South Asian cities, including Pakistan's Hyderabad, Multan, Lahore, Faisalabad, Karachi, and India's Ahmedabad, ranked among the least resilient due to high climate risks and inadequate adaptation. Heat exposure and flooding were key risk factors, highlighting challenges for urban infrastructure and climate preparedness in vulnerable regions.
