biscuits72 Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Hi there! Has anyone moved from Adelaide to Perth? How does it compare? We are a carpenter and mental health nurse who've been in Adelaide for 4 yrs. We are now ready to buy a house in Oz but not sure Adelaide is our true home. Is the job situation in Perth any good? Hubby is a life saver and both of our children are part of the surf club, so coastal areas are a must. The thought of moving interstate is almost as daunting as our original move from the UK ?

Anne Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 We were 12yrs in Adelaide & then moved to WA 30yrs ago. At the time we just felt like a change & houses were much cheaper in Perth. We are retired so cannot advise you on employment. I believe it is more difficult now the mining boom is on the downturn. But not as difficult as SA. The things I like about here is that the Winters are not so cold . . . it was 20c here yesterday. The beaches are lovely. The freeways & electric trains are a great. And it's cheap to fly to Asia.

Anne Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I forgot to mention that utilities cost less here than in SA. Electric, gas, water, Rego ect. I suggest you look for a cheap flight & come over for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
