Often mistaken as the country’s capital city, Sydney is a hub for tourism, jobs, and city living. Sydney embodies multicultural living in the sunshine which creates a dynamic lifestyle for those living there.
Sydney has become one of the hotspots to move to thanks to TV shows like Wanted Down Under. In 2021-2022, Sydney had substantial population growth with over 37,000 new residents in the city. New South Wales, state is in high demand, so it’s easy to understand why people are moving to the Emerald City.
Another reason for Sydney’s population, mainly around tourists is its nightlife. Sydney has a vibrant scene of food and drink establishments, bars, nightclubs, and of course casinos. The state of New South Wales which the city is in has around 10 casinos with many open 24 hours which makes it popular with gamblers. Removing time constraints from physical casinos is a big attraction for tourists in Sydney as in many cities this is not the case. In general, this increases the accessibility of Sydney and its casinos which will generate more income through tourism.
Increasing accessibility for casinos is not just allowed by the 24-hour establishments, but also through online means in online casinos. Online casinos have increased their accessibility by defying geographical limits and offering new financial options to customers. Cryptocurrency has been adopted by many casinos across the online industry and evolved to create crypto-only casinos with popular cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Bitcoin has created accessibility for coin holders through Bitcoin casinos and Bitcoin-themed games like Bitcoin slots, bitcoin play-to-earn Bitcoin games, and even Bitcoin variations of existing casino games.
Although geographical accessibility is not one of Australia’s strong suits, it is one of Syndey’s, among many others.
- Sydney residents have a long life expectancy
Australia is ranked highly for its life expectancy generally, with it ranking number 3 out of 20 countries with the highest life expectancy in 2021. The average life expectancy also was an average of 84 years! Gender can impact this as women in Australia statistically live longer, but a long life is a life well-lived, isn’t it?
Fortunately, Sydney replicates this pattern, as it has been considered one of the best cities for life expectancy, with one of the highest. Depending on the suburb, residents of North Shore and North Beaches in the past lived to 85.5 years old on average, according to research. Despite property and living being considered expensive, it seems the residents of Sydney have been thriving for years and will be for many more. Better pack those bags if you want a longer life!
- Sydney is a multicultural and diverse city
As many people move to Sydney for work, the city has become diversified thanks to these employment opportunities. While Australians do make up a considerable amount of its residents, in 2021 the top three ethnicities were English, Australian, and Chinese. If you wish to feel like part of a community with people from your country, Sydney is the place to settle.
Not only racially diverse, but Sydney is culturally diverse as well with its festivals, events, and food year-round. Sydney celebrates international art with the current Sydney International Art Series, and the yearly Chinese New Year Festival celebrates Sydney’s Chinese population with dragon boat races, performances, and parties that flood the city. Welcoming is Sydney’s middle name!
- The food is to die for
Any food blogger will tell you how delicious the food was on their travels but, indeed, Sydney never disappoints with its cuisine. Sydney has a lot of must-try dishes native to the city and its specialties, namely the Sydney rock oyster, courtesy of Sydney Harbour, but it’s rich in cuisine too. Sydney’s street food stalls in the heart of the city display rich tastes across the globe. The city even has designated neighborhoods for cuisine specialties. You should hit up Ashfield for Chinese eats or Cabramatta for authentic Vietnamese delights.
Researching can be tedious, so for those who don’t wish to spend hours on Google, why not try one of Sydney’s food tours to get your tastebuds in the mood for international food?
- The city is naturally beautiful
With its openness and fresh air, Sydney is considered very beautiful by locals and visitors. The natural landscape and the soft water that surrounds Sydney Harbour make it feel clean and inviting. And let’s not forget the beaches!
Sydney’s wonder of the world is its 100 beaches that reside within the city. The most beautiful ones, however, are up for debate. Manly Beach is one of the beloved relaxing beaches in the city which residents love as an alternative to the busy Bondi Beach. Watersports lovers will adore this beach after work where you can engage in a range of water activities. Or, if you need a shop, The Corso next to it has all your shopping and eating needs for a day out after work.
The city’s natural attractions create balance from the hustle and bustle in the center, with peace and tranquility with natural greenery.
Centennial Park is one of the city’s green space havens where residents can go for runs, cycle, and soak up the community life as the park is very active in holding events throughout the year.
- You will never be bored
You can’t put Sydney and boredom in the same sentence because there is so much to do. Sydney is filled to the brim with art galleries, theatres, museums, and opportunities for concerts. On top of that, Sydney has a lifestyle for everyone. Party animals can enjoy over 7,000 bars, pubs, and nightclubs in the city, whereas culture vultures can explore the wonders of Sydney one by one, and for the rest of you, well? That’s your choice.
