Moving To Perth
I am a US citizen.I am currently working on a permenant job in US in Dallas, Texas (on an USD$85K per year). I have been offered a contract job in
Perth Australia for AUD$450 per day.The employer will do the visa etc. AUD$450 will be including super. Its very hard to decide as I don't know much about Perth Australia. Please help me to compare Perth Australia with Dallas TX in terms of costs, salary,saving,housing etc.?

Re: Moving To Perth
Check real estate costs in Perth.
You will probably be on a temporary visa with few rights in Australia, is that a problem, if you have to go home at short notice?
If (or when) you have to go home, who pays for your repatriation?
Perhaps visit before making such a life-changing decision. Why not keep your current job, or move within the USA? What do you have to gain by going to Australia?
