I've been there in January and the heat/humidity is insane. As for Adelaide, I've never been there so cannot comment but despite what people say on here the fact is it's one of the slowest growing cities in Australia and plenty of people leave due to low salaries and limited opportunities, hence all the programs they have there to attract immigrants. Plenty of people move to Melbourne and Sydney.

Why is it always Perth or Brisbane? Why not Sydney or Melbourne...or Darwin or Adelaide...:confused:

I'm guessing it doesn't make the beach criteria I so often see on here.

Like.... where can I live that is within 20, 30, 60 minutes of the beach. Oddly enough no one asks the same question about places 2+ hours away :D

It's like someone has dumped a whole load of office blocks in the bush, there is little traffic and very few people walking around. Saying that, I saw some fantastic houses and the War Memorial is seriously world-class.
