Re: which is better Melbourne or Sydney
Also Melbournes population is 4 million about a few hundred thousand less of Sydney but it is Austrlalias fastest growing City, but the projected forecasts state Melbourne will overtake Sydney in the next 15 years.
This might suprise a few but look at the urban area sizes of Australias biggest cities
Melbourne: 2152.8 sq km
Brisbane: 1825.9 sq km
Sydney: 1788.1 sq km

MMM If Melbourne is a ghost town how come the daily population of the CBD is higher than that of Sydney's CBD?

It can be quite hard to notice tourists in Melbourne CBD especially in winter save for the odd backpacker few and far between.

Agree - the CBD in Melb is for the corporates. The backbackers and working holiday makers are very noticeable in St Kilda, Lygon, Sth Yarra...a lot of them work at the cafes.

Hah - very funny, in fact the poster is absolutely correct - night time winter temperatures in Melbourne do not get as low as night time winter temperatures in parts of QLD.
Summer daytime temperatures in Melbourne are hotter too but that is not a good thing.....

I thought that the temps this Summer were the best in the 5 years we have been here, only a couple of scorching hot days

The cloud cover limits Melbourne's lows. It's no accident that the sunniest days follow or precede a colder night. Our lows average about 7 degrees over winter. Almost mild in climate terms.
One of the coldest nights I recall as a backpacker, was in sunny Coff's Harbour in August.
