I have 4 tables – USERS, CITIES, STATES, COUNTRIES
USERS( user_id, email, password, name, location(FK) [references city_id] ) CITIES( city_id, name, state_id(FK), country_id(FK) ) STATES( state_id, name, country_id(FK) ) COUNTRIES( country_id, name )
I want to select username with complete location (eg: ADAM New Delhi, Delhi, India)
What is the optimal query for this?

Try this below script
SELECT A.name USERS, B.name CITIES, C.name STATES, D.name COUNTRIES FROM USERS A INNER JOIN CITIES B ON A.location = B.city_id INNER JOIN STATES C ON B.state_id = C.state_id INNER JOIN COUNTRIES D ON C.country_id = D.country_id
