Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane: Which city is better?

When it comes to coming to Australia or just moving on from one city to another, we need to consider some key points like lifestyle, cost of living, weather, and transport system.

We will outline the main pros to living in the most popular cities in Australia for international students and skilled workers. In the end, it’s up to you to choose the one you feel you can fit in:

Let’s dive into it!

 

Sydney 

Incredible beaches, buzzing nightlife and lots of plans to do all the time. Sydney offers the perfect combination of a cosmopolitan city and nature.

This city is one of the most multicultural in Australia so if you are keen to meet new people from completely different cultures, that’s the right place for you.

And if we talk about job opportunities, Sydney is ideal to find the job you’re looking for. Also, note that current students are able to work full-time without any limitations.

Melbourne 

Fashion, arts, culture and coffee: That’s a brief definition of Melbourne in 4 simple words, yet there is more to learn and see in the capital of Victoria. 

If you’re looking for magical alleyways to step in, urban and contemporary art, vibrant coffee shops and a vintage atmosphere, it’s time for you to pack up your bags and take the risk to live in Melbs.

On the other hand, this city is home to one of the best-ranked universities in the world: The Melbourne University (#2). So it’s ideal for international students.

And if we get asked to talk about the transport system, there are 24 tram routes around Melbourne, and Trams are free within the centre of the city. Isn’t that great?

Facts: 

Melbourne is ranked as the 15th best city to live in the world, according to the Global Time Out City Index. The city  scored highly in categories of diversity (78 per cent), public transport (74 per cent), relaxation (69 per cent) and green spaces (83 per cent).

The University of Melbourne and Monash University were both ranked in the top 10 universities in Australia.

 

Brisbane

Most known as Brissy, in Brisbane the climate is one of the things that those who live there enjoy the most.  The city has nearly 300 sunny days per year.

Smaller than Sydney, Brissy also has a less busy lifestyle and easy-going atmosphere which is perfect for those who want a quieter city.

With that said, it’s well known that it is more affordable to live in compared to Sydney and Melbs, which makes Brisbane attractive for students and backpackers.

Brisbane is also close to one of the best reef barriers in the world: The Great Barrier Reef, the largest coral reef in the world.
