Inner City Vibrance
Living in Adelaide’s inner city means enjoying excellent food and beverages at numerous cafes, restaurants, pubs, and bars in the vibrant CBD. Shopping at Rundle Mall or trendy high streets, attending festivals, and supporting sports teams at Adelaide Oval are all integral parts of city life. The city’s Mediterranean climate and long days make it ideal for year-round exploration and activities.
Global Liveability
Adelaide has climbed the ranks in The Economist’s Global Liveability Index, now named the 11th best place to live in the world out of 173 cities, ahead of Perth and Brisbane. This marks the second consecutive year Adelaide has improved its ranking, moving up from 12th place in 2023 and from 30th just two years ago.
Educational Excellence
Adelaide is also an educational hub, attracting people with top-class educational facilities, including the University of South Australia, Adelaide University, Torrens University, and TAFE SA. These institutions provide diverse opportunities for students at all levels.
Economic Growth
The city’s reputation as a centre for commerce and innovation has fostered a thriving local economy. South Australia’s expertise in market intelligence and competitive business landscape has spurred growth in sectors such as technology, health, education, gaming, visual effects, hospitality, and the defence and space industries. Additionally, Adelaide enjoys one of the lowest residential property prices among Australian mainland capitals.
Fringe Areas and Rural Charm
For those who appreciate a balance between city and country living, Adelaide’s fringe areas offer an appealing escape. The Fleurieu Peninsula, just an hour from the city, provides stunning coastal views, pristine beaches, and world-class wineries. Additionally, the renowned Barossa Valley, also within easy reach, is one of the world's great wine regions, known for its premium wines and picturesque landscapes. These regions combine the convenience of proximity to Adelaide with the charm of a rural lifestyle, making them ideal spots for weekend getaways or permanent retreats from the urban hustle.
Cultural Diversity
Approximately 30% of Adelaide’s residents were born overseas, making it one of Australia’s most culturally diverse cities. Annual multicultural festivals, including Schützenfest, the largest folk festival in the southern hemisphere, celebrate this diversity. Adelaide’s tradition of religious tolerance also makes it an ideal place for expatriates of any background to start anew.
