What do I need to know before moving to Brisbane?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Brisbane, they said...
"Before moving to Brisbane, it is important to have a good understanding of the climate. Brisbane enjoys a subtropical climate with warm and humid summers, and mild, dry winters. This can be a pleasant change for those used to living in more extreme climates. It is also advised to familiarise oneself with the transportation system - both public transport and roads. Taxis are also a convenient option for getting around the city. Furthermore, expats should become acquainted with the cost of living in Brisbane. While it is generally more affordable than many cities in the US and the UK, basic necessities such as housing, food, transport, and entertainment will add up, and expats should plan their budget accordingly. Additionally, health care should be made a priority and expats should arrange for international health insurance in case of medical emergencies. Finally, it is important to research the job market for any skills or qualifications you may have to ease the transition into the city," commented one expat who made the move to Brisbane, Australia, Australia.
