Melbourne is better for startups and IT jobs than Sydney.

Melbourne is the most desirable city in the world for startups and IT jobs as well as tech firms.

Even though Google and Facebook have their Australian headquarters in Sydney it's not even in the top 30 rankings.

The finance industry thrives in Sydney, with central and investment banks headquartered in the city.

Sydney is a hub for big-name tech firms like Microsoft, Google, Canva, and Atlassian.

One of the advantages about moving to Melbourne is the cheaper housing market.

The cost of renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center will likely cost around $1,610.00 a month in Melbourne (compared to $2,577.00 in Sydney).
