liveable

Fit for dwelling

Liveable describes a place fit for habitation—adequate or pleasant enough to live in.

A liveable apartment meets basic needs; a liveable city offers quality of life.

The word implies sufficiency rather than luxury: The renovations made the old house liveable again.

Of a wage or salary, liveable means enough to support oneself.
