Default Perth or Sydney for single guy in 20s?

Looking to emmigrate in Jan 2010, but still not sure where I'd like to be based - Perth (Rockingham) or Sydney.

Any ideas / advice?

Thanks!!

Gotta be Sydney

I'd hate to be single in Perth - or any other marital status for that matter!

Its a bit like comparing Torquay with Blackpool.

As a dedicated Melburnian I'd still give it to Sydney.

Totally different if you were comparing Melbourne and Sydney.

wow. i was expecting to start a bit of an argument - i didn't think everyone would be in such agreement! is the difference really that massive!?

I'm coming over this summer for a few months to have a look round anyway - think I'll still take a look at Perth - I've heard to many good things (although I'm a little disappointed at the lack of rugby league!)

thanks guys!

Between Sydney and Perth it has to be Sydney. Have you ruled out Melbourne?

I'm going to be joining the RAN, so unfortunately there's not much chance of getting Melbourne. Looks like its Rockingham or Sydney. By the sound of it, Id better try and push for Sydney!

If you are gay: Sydney.

Perth; you will be bored in 5 mins.

Best place for a single guy i his 20's is Melbourne.

... Actually, no, go to Sydney... It's great and the women are slappers.
