unreal Adelaide on this list

Sydney? Sure. International city

Melbourne. Yep. Has money

Perth. Mining.

Brisbane. OK

Adelaide? What's Adelaide got???

(well apart from formerly cheaps houses that east coast boomers snap up after getting outbid at their local auctions)

Adelaide has arguably the best climate of any Aussie city, pretty good beaches, its by far the best planned city and small enough so as to not be a nightmare for traffic, it’s got the hills and the Barossa next door, very good healthcare and schools, access to very good food both from sea and land, Victor Harbour and KI a short trip away for holidays, and it’s renowned for festivals and arts.

It’s basically the ideal place for seniors or late career people.

Probably all it’s lacking is better flight connections but once you get on and don’t travel as much or as far, this becomes less of an issue.

It’s Australia’s version of Florida where seniors are going to want to go for comfortable retirement.

great city for sure

just wild it's less affordable than Melbourne or San Francisco or London, or all the other cities below it on that list
