Well done Sydney and Melbourne!
San Francisco must have escaped their notice
thanks to the Liberal Party and the Northshore elite - voted in by the western suburbs of Sydney
The high price really boggles the mind when Australian cities lack so much culture, art, freedom, nightlife, internet speed, good food and public transport...
They all have something else in common too.
Thanks to all conservative lunatics nobody can afford the live. There, fixed it for you.
But nearly the highest wages ! Its all relative
Stop importing people!
You keep telling us week in week out how great it is that house prices keep going up. Now we live in the most expensive cities. Fuck you guys are geniuses.
If only we built more tollways, unfiltered stacks, expressways, parking stations , parking spots , concreted over more green space, tunnels , etc this cost of living would never have happened. Right Glady ....more people & more cars is a vision thing!
There's the facts. Population growth in Melbourne & Sydney sky rocketing housing prices. Simple economics when Demand out strips Supply the price rises. Quality of life declines.
Where is he? Scomo what have you done now? Parade at kirrabilli Tuesday, weather permitting. I'll be coming as the grim reaper. Bring your kids it will be a lovely day
Wow I wonder what all these cities have in common?
I disagree, Shanghai and Vancouver are cheaper than Sydney in my experience.
It’s amazing how expensive these cities are, given how deficient they are in every way compared to truly global cities.
not surprised
Not surprising
This is a much better framing than 'most well off cities in the world'. Much better to be honest and say you need excess wealth to survive here.
That's not a bad thing

Tennis Australia 'more proud of gender neutral toilets' than Margaret Court | Sky News AustraliaSky News host Rita Panahi says “Margaret Court's extraordinary sporting feats make her arguably Australia's greatest ever female athlete”, however, Tennis Australia are “more proud of the opening of gender neutral toilets at Melbourne Park”. \n\nMs Panahi said ahead of the 50th anniversary of her grand slam year next week, “in the eyes of Tennis Australia, her record-breaking exploits are tainted because she is a devout Christian who is opposed to same sex marriage”.\n\nAccording to Ms Panahi, Tennis Australia are “reluctantly acknowledging” the “trailblazing woman who dominated the sport at the highest level”.\n\n“For reasons that defy logic, Tennis Australia continues to play divisive political games and grandstand on issues that have nothing to do with tennis,' she said.\n\n“They risk alienating a sizeable portion of the Australian community.'\n\nImage: AP it is absolutely pathetic the way Margaret Court has been treated by TennisAustralia.

Indigenous law 'no longer serves us': Price | Sky News AustraliaCentre for Independent Studies commentator Jacinta Price says the fact that 23 per cent of partner homicide victims in Australia are Indigenous “is an absolute crisis considering Indigenous Australians make up only three per cent of the population”.\n\nMs Price told Sky News for those who have lived by traditional cultural law “we know that as females we are secondary to males” and that there are “very real punishments if we do the wrong thing”.\n\n“The argument often from the left is that we need to recognise customary law and I am absolutely perplexed when these suggestions,” she said.\n\n“I know of circumstances where women are targeted and it is all because of the law that governs us to this day. It shouldn’t be the case.\n\n“Why would we want to live by a law that is tens of thousands of years old that no longer serves us?”\n\nImage: News Corp Australia RitaPanahi That seems soooo familiar 🤔 DV in remote indigenous communities is known about & denied. What is the solution? Do we at least agree it must stop, even with more arrests? Can an indigenous culture support a prosperous & forward looking remote community to a general Australian standard? RitaPanahi Shall we do a statistical analysis of the overall trends for say - the last 200 years, as a starting point.
