I lived in a small town exactly half way between Bendigo and Ballarat. Used to flip a coin to choose which Bunnings I needed to go to. The only difference I can tell between the two towns is that one of them seems to have marginally wider streets and has a slightly flatter topography but I can never remember which one it is….

Launceston has something called a convection layer that traps all the smoke in winter from everyones fireplaces inside the valley. Its great for asthmatics and means that its warmer than Hobart even if the weather forecast never says so.
Inversion layer - it traps colder air under warmer air and traps smoke and smog. Tuggeranong in Canberra is famous for it, it's a decent health problem.
Here's a better description for Toowoomba. Its like that old person you know having a late midlife crisis and tries to act all young and cool but realistically just looks even worse for it. Also tends to mimic Melbourne because of all the cafes and coffee shops it has all over the place
Me sitting in Canberra: oh boy, what's he going to say. come on, lets have at it, give us your best shot. FJ: its cold and full of smart people me: oh. huh. well that is true.
I found it to be cold and full of heroin addicts. Also got robbed by a property manager, experienced a home invasion, and was targeted by junkies in my street who harassed me until I had a nervous breakdown and moved back to QLD. Canberra is a rectum. Didn’t see any smart people either, just privileged public servants running a rort for their egos, friends and families. The wildlife and nature is absolutely gorgeous. But the people. The people. I just, can’t.
As a Canberran, the road sign bit was totally inaccurate. You'll be hard pressed finding any roadside signage without at least one bent pole. it's like all the intelligence drains out once behind the wheel and dyslexia sets in. And the winter isn't so bad, it's the summer that's buggered. Combine heat, drivers and fuel prices, and forget Broken Hill - we are Australia's real White Line Nightmare.
As someone who grew up in Adelaide... what you said is spot on. Everyone who lives there constantly rants about wanting to leave... but never does because they're too content with their lives and cbf
Darlington Point: That town no one remembers for the birth of Bill Ferguson (Australia's Martin Luther King) and Dubbo (Dubbvegas as the cool kids call it) gets all the credit.
Incase you're wondering which between Newcastle's love for art and kfc is stronger, we paved over some ancient aborigional artifacts to string up the largest KFC in the southern hemisphere. Priorities
Honestly, Jordies already near-perfectly summed up Adelaide, but I would have added this: Adelaide: The place that somehow consistently ranks as the 2nd most liveable city in the world, despite our emergency centres having more ramping than Skate 3. (Hey, what do you know, we _do_ hate our own city!)
Its true! Back in the day I used to be in a pub/club band that toured the country for years. Perth, the locals would be like: "Whaddaythink of Perth? Pretty cool, ay!" Get to Adelaide, and the locals would be like: "Whaddaythink of Adelaide? Pretty shit, ay!".
I'm from Melbourne, I moved to Geelong for work, everyone is way more friendly and polite. Part of why I prefer it. Melbourne is crowded and that shows up in being angry. You're not fighting for personal space or starting a fight for changing lanes in Geelong
same here. moved from Werribee to Geelong. Even I have to commute to 2 hours for my work in Melbourne couple of days, Geelong is best place for family. Good community. Best people. Only problem is high property prices.
@@Enlight_Entertain yeah cheaper in like City of Melton but you might know, Melton doesn't have a Hospital or a Westfield & as funny as that sounds. House prices in Leopold increased alot from the Supermarket becoming a regional plaza
I think you nailed Darwin pretty well. Playing in pipes and drains got so bad here that they literally had to make a televised animated song to stop youth playing in them. IT SHOULD JUST BE COMMON SENSE!! If anyone has a chance to watch it, I highly recommend it "Don't Play in Pipes and Drains". Darwin: Yeah it's owned by China, but at least we're not Alice Springs.
I moved to Canberra almost three years ago. Love it here so much. I can't say it's an unhappy place. However I would say it really is the city of the nerds. It's like high school but instead of the dickhead kids on the footy team bullying everyone, it's nerds who think the height of fashion is either Macpac or Kathmandu paired with a wide brimmed hat with the string that goes under your chin. Everyone goes hiking here and when they're not hiking they're walking around their neighbourhoods in their hiking gear. I once saw a bloke walking through the suburbs carrying a full 70L hiking pack.
@@AlexSchladetsch if you're interested in national history - everything. If you are only interested in what normies like then everything that you can do in Sydney.

As someone living in Bendigo, I can confidently say the greatest feeling of disappointment and sadness in the past couple months was from learning that Ballarat got their Govhub before Bendigo.
if it makes you feel better, I have lived in Ballarat for 3 decades and now I want to move to Bendigo (or somewhere else). This city has turned to absolute shit in the last few years.
Personally I love living in Bendigo, the whole place feels like a Crash Bandicoot level, but instead of trying to dodge nitro you're trying to dodge junkies trying to bash you and children trying to rob you of smokes
Caboolture: That weird state in the process of gentrification where you have upper middle class housing developments 2 streets over from a dilapidated meth house.
I am from Newcastle. I can testify, people throwing things or yelling from cars is a thing. I don't know why. I guess it is because there is nothing to do if you don't like the beach or the lake.
From Brisbane, Glad a foreigner agrees with my take on it, but PLEASE stop telling people! the flood of southerners will soon upset the delicate balance. If there was one bad thing I could think of for Brisbane, it's that it must be boring AF for tourists. ironically and probably because of the fact that its surrounded by loads of great tourist spots relatively nearby.
It will soon? It already has. There isn't even enough accommodation for the people that already live here after the boom of people moving up to Brisbane.
New Zealand: Where the people wish they were under the Australian Labor Government right now. Bugger it, make New Zealand New South Wales again, you can have us.
Port Macquarie; Dubbo by the sea Taree; It sure aint Newcastle, but at least it we're not in Port Macquarie any more Dubbo; "Next stop Dubbo, for your safety CountryLink advises all passengers to get off at Wellington"
As someone in Perth, I am unsurprised you get asked to join orgies. It's a city where you gotta be able to make your own fun, so yeah, it checks out. Also there is a North Vs South unspoken civil war based on which side of the river you're on.
I've been here 7 years and I still don't understand the North and South civil war but somehow understand if your from the other side it explains everything wrong with your personality
It’s said that North living people have big egos They are the kind who attend UWA and get caught in high school for certain entrepreneurial ventures and boy school elitism
Torquay, that holiday town where all the locals get shitty about it being a holiday town. By locals I mean people who moved there from the city 5 months ago and shafted the housing market.
You not having anything bad to say about Brisbane makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. So let's fix that by talking about Maryborough, Queensland (not the inferior Maryborough in Victoria). 3 hours to the North, Maryborough has one claim to fame. PL Travers, author of Mary Poppins was born there. She was so ashamed of this she blatantly refused to talk about the town until her death. Now there's a dedicated set of Mary Poppins traffic lights and a bronze statue of Mary Poppins in the CBD of Maryborough. Maryborough was going to be the capital city of Queensland, but the Mary River was too shallow. There's a giant statue of Ned Kelly holding a shotgun guarding the southern entrance of the town in Tinana, and it holds the dubious honour of being the only place in Australia that ever had an outbreak of the bubonic plague. Now it's so fucked by climate change that it flooded twice in the span of a couple of months earlier this year. It also once held the title of most pubs per capita of any town in Australia, and they even used to hold a city-wide Pub Crawl where you had to visit 10 pubs in like 6 hours to go for a Guiness World Record for the world's largest pub crawl. Eventually they scrapped this because they realised Maryboroughians shouldn't be encouraged to drink more than they already do. (Fuckin BUNDY RUM MATE). Anyway, that's where I was born and raised. MARYBOROUGH!
I've been to Maryborough many times and it certainly isn't the happy hole the name makes it out to be. As a child I'd wonder if this town could get any more bogan and then the prison came and yes my god it can get more bogan. It's the country town equivalent to mount Druitt. The train station is out of town so tourists on the tilt train can't see what they're in for. If the station was in the centre of town they'd look out the window and stay on the train to Bundy.
@Aaron I'm doing the FraserPop convention as an author vendor in a few weeks at the Maryborough SHS. I'm really looking forward to it. As much shit as Maryborough gets, I will still always love it.

I’d always laugh at Sydney and Melbourne having this fight of “whose the better city” since federation and joke that Brisbane is clearly better than both of them. I’m glad that Jordies agrees with me.
Perth memory. 1995 and I asked my SA mate why his family moved to Aust “Yeah because Mandela got in, and he’s cool but my dad is super racist, and an enormous fucking arsehole”. Made sense. Also most of the Brit’s that spent the 90’s slotted on disco biscuits and listening to the acoustic brain damage inducing hard core trans music whilst starring directly into a laser at a festival for 14 hours ended up in Perth as Tradies. Actually a super chill place to grow up.
Nah, this is a genuine thing. Dutton a couple of years ago wanted to give priority visas to white South African farmers - of course we are one of the most racist countries running round. Step a foot outside inner city life and it's pretty obvious.

You missed an opportunity with Canberra: The highest capital. Not only do we have legal weed here, we're perched in the F*&$ing mountains. Probably explains why the pollies always come off so dopey; most of the bastards suffer altitude sickness coming to parliament and can't focus on good policy (or they've got it chronic in the closet)! The fact that it's cold as a witches tit here half the time is just a good excuse for no one (not pollies, not public servants, not the bloody baristas at the 6 cafes per capita) to want to be here. The mass exodus for the cold months makes the ABS stats on residence look like the deciduous trees that Walter Burley Griffin decided needed to be planted EVERYWHERE!
what you said about the Vibe of Melbourne being that of a constant intermission between art/theater shows is on point, having lived here for half my life. Even in the outskirts near Frankston where I live. I get that vibe whenever i head into Franga, considering one of the first things you see when entering the place is a giant chrome Gnome on the entrance highway right outside Frankston hospital. but just 2 mins down from that is a theater building the size of an entire block. In fact the entire highway up into Melbourne from the mornington peninsula has this "artsy" architecture to it.
funnyest thing is w all the construction and 'yuppyfying' theyve given frankston, all the new people are coming in and then getting shocked about the news reports. eg i had an old lady the other day mention the stabbing down gallery lane aka ultraviolet-lights-to-find-veigns-easyer-for-junkies-shooting-up lane, acting like she could never have thought such a thing to happen! especially from little kids!! like ahaha yes lady, thanks for telling me, it isnt new. its franga baybeeee like sure u can move new ppl in n make property more expencive but theres still the govt housing around n the abandonned building next to maccas tht all the homeless live in. ull never get rid of the locals. dont even get me started on the fucking dandenong kids, ugh.

Launceston has something called a convection layer that traps all the smoke in winter from everyones fireplaces inside the valley. Its great for asthmatics and means that its warmer than Hobart even if the weather forecast never says so.
thats really interesting
Sister town of Armadale, eh? Same problem/tourist attraction.
also in launceston we have a ridiculous amount of meth for the size of our population. it's like snow that falls all year round
Inversion layer - it traps colder air under warmer air and traps smoke and smog. Tuggeranong in Canberra is famous for it, it's a decent health problem.
@@RATMbrad Bloody hell, im sorry to hear that, I Absolutely LOVE Launceston. I went to UMC .. Was wanting to become a Pilot.
Here's a better description for Toowoomba. Its like that old person you know having a late midlife crisis and tries to act all young and cool but realistically just looks even worse for it. Also tends to mimic Melbourne because of all the cafes and coffee shops it has all over the place
Mainlanders: Hobart might as well just live in a prison.
Hobartians: Lockdown? lol what’s that?!
Me sitting in Canberra: oh boy, what's he going to say. come on, lets have at it, give us your best shot.
FJ: its cold and full of smart people
me: oh. huh. well that is true.
I found it to be cold and full of heroin addicts. Also got robbed by a property manager, experienced a home invasion, and was targeted by junkies in my street who harassed me until I had a nervous breakdown and moved back to QLD. Canberra is a rectum. Didn’t see any smart people either, just privileged public servants running a rort for their egos, friends and families. The wildlife and nature is absolutely gorgeous. But the people. The people. I just, can’t.
As a fellow Canberran, testify.
so smart yet no one can drive properly haha
As a Canberran, the road sign bit was totally inaccurate. You'll be hard pressed finding any roadside signage without at least one bent pole. it's like all the intelligence drains out once behind the wheel and dyslexia sets in.
And the winter isn't so bad, it's the summer that's buggered. Combine heat, drivers and fuel prices, and forget Broken Hill - we are Australia's real White Line Nightmare.
The cold's not even that bad unless you live in a place with shitty insulation. I've barely turned my heater on so far this winter
As someone who grew up in Adelaide... what you said is spot on. Everyone who lives there constantly rants about wanting to leave... but never does because they're too content with their lives and cbf
Adelaide is actually great, but no one from there seems to be willing to admit it. I guess I'm the same.
I confirm this
we low key rag on it to keep the Victorians out
But will vehemently disagree when anyone from "the eastern states" says anything bad about Adelaide. Oh, and don't mention the Grand Prix.

Honestly, Jordies already near-perfectly summed up Adelaide, but I would have added this:
Adelaide: The place that somehow consistently ranks as the 2nd most liveable city in the world, despite our emergency centres having more ramping than Skate 3.
(Hey, what do you know, we _do_ hate our own city!)
#1 this year.
Its true! Back in the day I used to be in a pub/club band that toured the country for years. Perth, the locals would be like: "Whaddaythink of Perth? Pretty cool, ay!" Get to Adelaide, and the locals would be like: "Whaddaythink of Adelaide? Pretty shit, ay!".

I'm from Melbourne, I moved to Geelong for work, everyone is way more friendly and polite. Part of why I prefer it. Melbourne is crowded and that shows up in being angry. You're not fighting for personal space or starting a fight for changing lanes in Geelong
same here. moved from Werribee to Geelong. Even I have to commute to 2 hours for my work in Melbourne couple of days, Geelong is best place for family. Good community. Best people. Only problem is high property prices.
@@Enlight_Entertain yeah cheaper in like City of Melton but you might know, Melton doesn't have a Hospital or a Westfield & as funny as that sounds. House prices in Leopold increased alot from the Supermarket becoming a regional plaza

Geelong is great. The access to the town's further down just keeps getting better too. Love that region.

I think you nailed Darwin pretty well. Playing in pipes and drains got so bad here that they literally had to make a televised animated song to stop youth playing in them. IT SHOULD JUST BE COMMON SENSE!! If anyone has a chance to watch it, I highly recommend it "Don't Play in Pipes and Drains".
Darwin: Yeah it's owned by China, but at least we're not Alice Springs.
thanks mate

I’ve boogie boarded in a storm drain before. I did it going away from the drain and stopped halfway to the next drain. Good times

The only downside of Brisbane is literally everytime anyone says "Brisvegas," unironically.
As a non-Australian, I gotta say that Darwin sounds REALLY aptly named to be the host-city for an official Darwin-Awards
I moved to Canberra almost three years ago. Love it here so much. I can't say it's an unhappy place. However I would say it really is the city of the nerds. It's like high school but instead of the dickhead kids on the footy team bullying everyone, it's nerds who think the height of fashion is either Macpac or Kathmandu paired with a wide brimmed hat with the string that goes under your chin. Everyone goes hiking here and when they're not hiking they're walking around their neighbourhoods in their hiking gear. I once saw a bloke walking through the suburbs carrying a full 70L hiking pack.
I mean what the hell else is there to do in Canberra?
You will learn to love the wide brimmed hat in Canberra. You will burn twice as fast as anywhere on the coast.
@@AlexSchladetsch if you're interested in national history - everything. If you are only interested in what normies like then everything that you can do in Sydney.
Hey man, I'm on my couch in my hiking gear, it's cold as here [in Belco]
Benefits of living in a crater is there is a mountain/hill never too far to hike. Pretty sure the fashion of Canberra is a bright blue suit and a pair of RM Williams to make it "casual"

- "Come for the Fringe, stay for the pot."
- "A Godless city with too many churches."

As someone living in Bendigo, I can confidently say the greatest feeling of disappointment and sadness in the past couple months was from learning that Ballarat got their Govhub before Bendigo.

From Brisbane, Glad a foreigner agrees with my take on it, but PLEASE stop telling people! the flood of southerners will soon upset the delicate balance.
If there was one bad thing I could think of for Brisbane, it's that it must be boring AF for tourists. ironically and probably because of the fact that its surrounded by loads of great tourist spots relatively nearby.
Yeah but it's pretty humid ay?
It will soon? It already has. There isn't even enough accommodation for the people that already live here after the boom of people moving up to Brisbane.
Everytime I hear "Brisbane is so boring" my answer is "good, good... stay away!" lol I love it here!
Yes unlike Sydney and Melbourne, Brisbane has no tourist attractions, no city zoo or Aquarium and no iconic world renowned buildings.

As someone in Perth, I am unsurprised you get asked to join orgies. It's a city where you gotta be able to make your own fun, so yeah, it checks out. Also there is a North Vs South unspoken civil war based on which side of the river you're on.
Fuck south
I've been here 7 years and I still don't understand the North and South civil war but somehow understand if your from the other side it explains everything wrong with your personality

You not having anything bad to say about Brisbane makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.
So let's fix that by talking about Maryborough, Queensland (not the inferior Maryborough in Victoria). 3 hours to the North, Maryborough has one claim to fame. PL Travers, author of Mary Poppins was born there. She was so ashamed of this she blatantly refused to talk about the town until her death. Now there's a dedicated set of Mary Poppins traffic lights and a bronze statue of Mary Poppins in the CBD of Maryborough.
Maryborough was going to be the capital city of Queensland, but the Mary River was too shallow. There's a giant statue of Ned Kelly holding a shotgun guarding the southern entrance of the town in Tinana, and it holds the dubious honour of being the only place in Australia that ever had an outbreak of the bubonic plague. Now it's so fucked by climate change that it flooded twice in the span of a couple of months earlier this year.
It also once held the title of most pubs per capita of any town in Australia, and they even used to hold a city-wide Pub Crawl where you had to visit 10 pubs in like 6 hours to go for a Guiness World Record for the world's largest pub crawl. Eventually they scrapped this because they realised Maryboroughians shouldn't be encouraged to drink more than they already do. (Fuckin BUNDY RUM MATE).
Anyway, that's where I was born and raised. MARYBOROUGH!
@Reors we're always just happy to be acknowledged.
AMusing, informative and probably factual, 9/10 well done smiley stamp.
I've been to Maryborough many times and it certainly isn't the happy hole the name makes it out to be. As a child I'd wonder if this town could get any more bogan and then the prison came and yes my god it can get more bogan.
It's the country town equivalent to mount Druitt. The train station is out of town so tourists on the tilt train can't see what they're in for. If the station was in the centre of town they'd look out the window and stay on the train to Bundy.
...and yet its still so very, very similar to the MaryBRAH in Vic
@Aaron I'm doing the FraserPop convention as an author vendor in a few weeks at the Maryborough SHS. I'm really looking forward to it. As much shit as Maryborough gets, I will still always love it.
Bathurst was pretty spot on. Doesn't matter how fast you drive in this city, you're getting tailgated.
Bathurst is a city?
BrisneyLand: "The happiest place on Earth."
Sydney: "Where a hedonistic global gay capital meets world leading greed."
Melbourne: "Where existential dread vies with the AFL for religious dominance."
Adelaide: "Fear and Loathing on the edge of a desert."
Perth: "Where the economy is really just a hole in the ground."
Darwin: "Where the only thing more punishing than the climate is the wildlife."
Hobart: "What happens when cousins have sex."
Canberra: "Where bureaucracy on drugs is more than just a way of life."
Newcastle: "Home and Away on Meth."
Wollongong: "Home and Away: The bogan version."
Byron Bay: "Comfortable, calming and spiritually enlightening as a multi crystal suppository."
Bathurst: "Doing our part for raising the national road toll for that one day every year."
Geelong: "Why just only eat shit when you can live in it too?"
Bendigo: "Breaking Bad for Melbournians seeking a more rural religious alternative."
Mackay: "Hobart with extra dollop of racism."
Townsville: "We gotta big red rock and a NRL team."
Cairns: "We got rainforest and a NBL team."
Gold Coast: "Where the only thing more fake than the tourist attractions are the inhabitants."
Sunshine Coast: "We are Hobart with a better climate."
Launceston: "Our cousins are more attractive than Hobart's."
Ballarat: Gold coated crack served up in a middle aged hookers ass.
A phrase that sums up my town perfectly is "You've never heard of it until you've moved there"

You missed an opportunity with Canberra: The highest capital. Not only do we have legal weed here, we're perched in the F*&$ing mountains. Probably explains why the pollies always come off so dopey; most of the bastards suffer altitude sickness coming to parliament and can't focus on good policy (or they've got it chronic in the closet)! The fact that it's cold as a witches tit here half the time is just a good excuse for no one (not pollies, not public servants, not the bloody baristas at the 6 cafes per capita) to want to be here. The mass exodus for the cold months makes the ABS stats on residence look like the deciduous trees that Walter Burley Griffin decided needed to be planted EVERYWHERE!

what you said about the Vibe of Melbourne being that of a constant intermission between art/theater shows is on point, having lived here for half my life. Even in the outskirts near Frankston where I live. I get that vibe whenever i head into Franga, considering one of the first things you see when entering the place is a giant chrome Gnome on the entrance highway right outside Frankston hospital. but just 2 mins down from that is a theater building the size of an entire block. In fact the entire highway up into Melbourne from the mornington peninsula has this "artsy" architecture to it.
funnyest thing is w all the construction and 'yuppyfying' theyve given frankston, all the new people are coming in and then getting shocked about the news reports. eg i had an old lady the other day mention the stabbing down gallery lane aka ultraviolet-lights-to-find-veigns-easyer-for-junkies-shooting-up lane, acting like she could never have thought such a thing to happen! especially from little kids!! like ahaha yes lady, thanks for telling me, it isnt new. its franga baybeeee
