where is the best place to travel to in australia

>>2875397
I suggest you ask this question on the forum about the best place to live in Australia

>>2875397
pre-covid it used to be Cairns but now it got raped and there's a major housing shortage
Melbourne is disproportionately cheap right now, in terms of price to performance it's probably the best

Depends on what your priorities are

>>2875578
My priority is living as far away from Indians as possible

>>2875580
I heard there's none in the bush but it might be hearsay

>>2875397
>where is the best place to live in australia
Melbourne or Sydney
with a slight edge to Melbourne
but only if you have $2-3million for a house to spare though
otherwise you're gonna live in a shoebox

Not true I just finished a 10 day road trip through the bush from Townsville all the way to Geelong. Every servo and roadhouse in the outback was ran by jeets.

sunshine coast

Tasmania.
Maybe 1 out of 5 is a minority rest are white.
That's good numbers, in Melbourne it's 1 out of 5 is white.
Been here for 8 months, fucking loving it, not alot of Indians or browns.
(I'm brown btw, white soul tho)

In terms of cities, it all depends what you want, Melbourne is trendy and up-and-coming with a large creative and culinary scene, Sydney is more historical and established, with lots of landmarks and the likes, qld cities are the beachy laid back party cities, I would say Perth is the "quiet achiever", it's nice but not sure about for tourists, Darwin's just a dump, and idk about Adelaide

If you want something outside the city I'd say the East Coast between Brisbane and Sydney has the most to offer, pretty much all the beaches and headlands are beautiful and have tourist infrastructure. For inland nature I would say the same, but obvious inland, as well as the rainforests up in northern qld and the kimberly region in Western Australia. You can browse the national parks websites of each state to have a look at what the main attractions of each of parks are.

I would personally recommend Dorrigo National Park, Barrington Tops National Park, Blue Mountains National Park, Daintree National Park, and the gorges and other water features around Wyndham WA

Oh yeah and towns like Lightning Ridge and Broken have some pretty cool mining history stuff if your into that.

nah they're everywhere now

Australia is fucked

>British outpost surrounded by Asian and Pacific nations — Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, East Timor, the Pacific Islands, and further north the broader Southeast and East Asian region. Its trade, migration, and security environment are overwhelmingly shaped by Asia, not Britain
>You're gonna need to be on at least $90k to be comfortable as a single person in Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane
>Melbourne CBD is dodgy as fuck
>Sydney is Chinese and Muslim. Melbourne is Indian and Muslim
>Brisbane CBD is Philly tier destitute, homeless everywhere, trash everywhere, smells like garbage and cigarettes, many closed business, drugs and needles everywhere in the valley
>Uni is a scam. $30k-$50k debt for a job that you'll earn less in compared to getting a trade or just working your way up
>Plumbing and Electricians are the best trades. Small population of blue collar workers. Strong union keeping uncertified jeets and chinese out (mostly)
>Having a car is considered an expensive luxury when most can't afford anything
>Homeless everywhere. Heaps of people forced into homelessness because they can't afford to rent
>Small towns are cocaine and meth towns
>Heaps have given up and just live on benefits and how many people causally take coke, ice, acid, mdma and speed to cope and escape from the Australian Nightmare
>Expect to pay between $700 to $900 per WEEK if you want a decent place (rent money = dead money)
>Nobody can afford a house anymore. Everyone competing for one bedroom apartment close to the CBD
>Average hourly pay in Australia is approximately $27.86, barely enough to do anything with
>Parks full of homeless and drugs, crackheads, zombies walking the streets at night
>Black crime. When they cause trouble they do so in a large group, and the police just watch and do nothing because they are too outnumbered to deal with them
>Rural Cities and Regional Towns have no jobs besides Coles, Woolworths and Gas Stations

You're a crybaby. You have the highest min wage in the world. You can rent a room in a sharehouse with chinks and jeets and have your own room for 6 hours a week of min wage. Food phone etc is dirt cheap. Gibs are plentiful and easy. Tradies do fuckall and live like kings.

>>2877626
sounds just like Canada

>>2877626
It started off as a penal colony, why do you sound genuinely disappointed?
The entire rock is a barren desert - only the coastal regions are habitable. Even with 2026 technology they haven't been able to establish sustainable growing cities its centre.
The only saving grace is that the seas are relatively calm the further south you go from QLD tropics.
The fact that they didn't give it up as the shit hand of card it is - that's an extraordinary achievement already

Live? Depends on how much money you have. If you have just enough to get here then Melbourne is the answer. If you have more money and your ideal Australia is beaches and living like Chris Hemsworth try Sydney up to Brisbane on the coast. If you want to earn money then try Perth and working in the mining industry. Buying a property anywhere will be very expensive.

Melbourne CBD is not even remotely bad. I was there tonight. There's a couple of streets where skitzos hang out. Just don't go there. It's one of the safest cities in the world.

That's like asking "what is the best STD?" or "what is the best maximum-security penitentiary to live in?"

Looking at a working holiday for a year all around Australia probably starting February
Anybody else done this?

>>2882515
Yeah I did that. it was kino. Had a dishwasher job making $28/hr. But I'm a USAfag, not ESL. You might end up doing slave shit in the farms if you're a thirdy. I didnt go all around oz though, i just stayed in one city

>>2882519
Yeah I’m an American too
looking at bartending, but open to anything that isn’t a pain in the ass

>>2875397
Indians only at this point. We have taken in so many Indians in two years they have overtaken the english in numbers

>>2882522
just take what you can get. everything pays the same

It's very safe for pedestrians but burg attempts and broken car windows are a reality for people who actually live there.

this is pretty meaningless when even the UK ranks highly for such a stat
