Although Brisbane is split almost in half by the River, the character of its residential areas differs along the points of the compass. Newer inner-city areas offer town-house or high-rise living at one end of the scale. At the other end Brisbane offers acreage living closer to any other CBD you will find.

Though often accused of having "Branch Office Syndrome", Brisbane has plenty of opportunity for work of all types. Its burgeoning population offers plenty of opportunity for the entrepreneur and consistently helps it achieve jobs growth higher than most other Australian capitals.

Although Brisbane is serviced by rail and bus transport, the size of the Brisbane's sprawling suburbia makes your own transport a major plus. Even for a short visit getting a rental car is a good idea as it will let you access far more than public transport.

The CBD may be the first shopping destination on your list, but Brisbane has a number of satellite business districts that bring shops closer to the suburbs. Queensland boasts a wide range of exclusive arcades, shopping centres, boutique-filled boulevards and duty-free shops. Queensland also has a wide variety of arts and crafts weekly markets. These markets feature a wide selection of stalls brimming with home-made gifts, clothing and food.

The weather in Brisbane is comfortable and sub-tropical. The city of Brisbane enjoys a very enviable climate of brilliant hot summers and clear mild winters. This makes Brisbane is ideal for visitors all year round.
