      Sydney is great, I am there now for same reason. Sydney is one of the only Australian city’s where you can survive using transit and not owning a car.

    Thanks … this was entertaining. I lived in Melbourne (well outer east) from age 4 to age 23…went to live in Sydney for 2 years, then back to far outer east until I was about 34… there’s a lot to appreciate about Melbourne and it’s culture.

    2022 - I love your energy and gestures about Melbourne. My daughter is working there now and has the best Melbournian employer. Not coming back. Melbourne is my favorite city in Australia and I love its diversity. You are right, food in Melbourne is amazing and I would say comparable or even better than Singapore. The price is not cheap but portions is big. In CBD which is competitive, can get good cheap eats. I love the Winter and can always see snow in Mt Buller. There is no other place that I would love as a 2nd home.

      So normally would be
      December to March - Summer
      March to June - Autumn
      June to September - Winter
      September to December - Spring
      Temperatures vary so much because Melbourne being Melbourne, but I don't recall the lowest being lower than 0c but the highest can certainly go higher than 40c.

    CBD has way too much tourist these days, and something about the pandemic's made it worse and generally there is less courtesy and public etiquette.

      Hmmm funny thing is I haven't really seen too many spiders like what they say about in your shoes and stuff. I did encounter a spider in my balcony that I think was a funnel web - aka deadly. Finish the whole bottle of spider spray spraying at it from a distance and safe to say that it was dead, dead

      I think it is super immigrant friendly. Yes you do get bad apples everywhere in the world but I would say my time in Melbourne has been fantastic. In terms of entrepreneurs, I think it's pretty easy to set up things compared to many countries in Europe and East Asia where you have to submit a thick file of paperwork. There are many likeminded people if you know where to look

    Melbourne with the most skyscrapers in the CBD area, yes I agree but in the whole city, no, Sydney wins as Sydney is spread out; you’ll find skyscrapers in (will exclude North Sydney as one can consider it as inner-city), Chatswood, St Leonards, Parramatta, Homebush, Rhodes, Wentworth Point, Liverpool, and more. These suburbs are their own cities.

    Daniel Andrew's ruined Melbourne. It went from pretty over-regulated, full of nanny state rules, to a total authoritarian shithole. Traffic is terrible, public transport is clunky, there's a racist undercurrent and can be quite aggressive at times, and healthcare is sub-standard.

I notice you didn't mention nature and landscape, which is just about zero in Melbourne. I couldn't care less about coffee or fashion or sport. Culture and art and food is where you find it.
      You probably think graffiti is art.
