The other thing to think about is the weather. I find that the winter weather in Melbourne keeps me indoors between June and August, except for 2 or 3 fine weekends. Sydney winter weather is a fair bit milder, so you can get out a bit more. Spring, Summer and Autumn are equally good in both states.
(I am originally from QLD though, so my idea of crappy weather mightn't correlate well with other Melbournites). |
