Perth is very liveable, I like Melbourne and don't like Brisbane so this survey is correct.

Someone posted previously that the difference between coming 1st and 10th can often just be one subjective category like weather. So if what they decide is "good" weather matches what your city has then you jump 10 places. And yes, I come from Brisbane

Theres some great coastline and beaches an hours east of Canberra and it also has snow and ski resorts in the mountains outside it, you don't get that in Perth.

Melbourne is one of the most liveable cities, well as long as your not an Inidan student.

Presumably still a fair bit higher than the Indian cities listed, not seen the list so don't know for sure but I've not seen any of them mentioned.

Let's face it, if you have a good job, then Aussie cities are up there with the best.

You choose one over the other due to stuff like jobs, or any interests you may have.

I thought you were vaguely anti-Melbourne, 'zulu?

Well it's not if you're an economic company just going on particular details. However when it comes to actual human beings living places then it's totally relative and individual and becomes a crock.

No, I like Melbourne. I don't think much of Sydney and I really don't like Brisbane.
