What's the best Australian city to live in? |
Travel Info Hi. I'm a 21 year year old American currently living in Massachusetts. I want to move to Australia so I was wondering what is the best city in Australia to live in. Thanks! Travel Tips Personal opinion: Forget about Sydney, the cost of living there is just way too high, and try to buy a house there, you might not get any good deal. People tend to be 'colder', but the weather is rather warm. Compare to Massachusetts, Sydney might be 'tropical' all year round. Even in the winter, it still gets up to 65 degree in the day time, although it might drop to 45 at night. Summer: hot hot hot. But if you like warmer weather for a change, Sydney or Brisbane is the way to go. I think Melbourne is a good place to live. The weather is generally cooler, and it still has a very nice atmosphere, people are friendly, lots of activities. Hey, how about Brisbane!!!. It is definitely not a country town anymore as some suggested. It is the 3rd largest cities in Australia. Enough people to make it festive. Not too crowded to squeeze you breathless during peak hours. Lots of hip suburbs (sometimes better than the city itself). And if you choose the right place, you can have a nice river view right from your apartment! Brisbane really has integrated the river into their daily activities. Hard to explain, but it is awesome! Others sydney, mate! I lived in Australia. The cities are good like Sydney and Perth is great. BUT, you cannot just decide to go live in Australia and think they will welcome you with open arms because after your tourism time is up; you will have to leave or become and illegal alien. Other countries do not want immigrants the same as the US doesn't want them. Sorry but you are not in reality here. I was able to live there because my husband owned a company in Australia. Sydney for sure its in the world's top 5 cities along with Paris, New York, London amd Madrid I live in Newcastle, but I don't think it's the best city. You should really find what's best for you, find what sort of activities you are interested in, but I think Sydney's the best place (the good parts of Sydney anyway). PERTH, its great here, the beaches are beautiful and the weathers great most of the year and there is so much to do!!! That is other than the "nitelife" , but other than that its terrific!!! Rock on Perth Every reply you get will be biased, all the major cities are good to live in. My personal choice is Sydney and I have lived in Melbourne, Adelaide, and Darwin and visited all the others many times. I have always had a great time wherever I am but if I had to settle for one, it would be Sydney.. |
