Perth vs Canberra
 
gumble
I'm thinking of leaving Adelaide next year.
The best places for me (career wise) are Perth and Canberra.
I've been to both, I thought Perth was great and Canberra kinda sucked.

In terms of liveability though, what do you think is better?
Canberra is a bit better located, but Perth has a better lifestyle, although isolated....

Also Canberra has more opportunities directly for my field....

I think perth would be a tiny bit cheaper to live in as well?

Any thoughts?

does weather count? canberra has the worst weather in the entire country!

i would definitely choose perth (tho ive never been) coz i spent 12 years in canberra.

no, perth is much MUCH more expensive to live in, certainly if you're looking at renting. there is a serious rental crisis in perth currently.

fun, beach babes, larger population, great weather- perth

better location, better housing opportunities, more job prospects- canberra.

i have relatives in both, so i can come to visit you in either, so its a win-win for you! :toothless

Theres your answer, go where you think will help you further your career.

Also I have a friend living in Perth & its not THAT cheap ;)

Look into it more, with costs, etc, think ABOUT YOUR CAREER/future the most.

Good Luck
:tongue2

As you've already stated...

Lifestyle -> Perth
Career -> Canberra

IT comes down to your priorities.

Personally I'd go to Perth. Canberra is a hole. It is, however, within driving distance to Sydney and Melb.

it also depends if i continue studying.

i'll be stuck then for 3 -4 years wherever i choose.
