What do people like (and dislike) about Melbourne?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Melbourne, they replied...
"Expats and digital nomads generally like Melbourne's vibrant arts and culture scene, which includes numerous galleries, museums, and street art. They appreciate the city's diverse food options, with a wide range of international cuisines available in various cafes and restaurants. Melbourne's efficient public transportation system, including trams, trains, and buses, is also a plus for many expats and digital nomads. The city's friendly and welcoming atmosphere, along with its multicultural population, makes it easy for newcomers to feel at home. Additionally, Melbourne's numerous coworking spaces and strong Wi-Fi connectivity make it an attractive destination for digital nomads. On the other hand, expats and digital nomads often dislike Melbourne's high cost of living, particularly when it comes to housing and rental prices. The city's unpredictable weather, which can change from sunny to rainy within a matter of hours, can also be a source of frustration for some. Melbourne's distance from other major international cities can make travel more expensive and time-consuming, which may be a drawback for digital nomads who frequently travel for work or leisure. Finally, some expats and digital nomads may find it challenging to navigate Australia's complex visa and immigration system, especially if they plan to stay in the country long-term," said another in Melbourne, Australia.
