Melbourne Imo is a far better choice then Sydney. But it all depends on what you want in a lifestyle, everyone is different.

Melbourne while it does have speratic weather, with most days having 2 or more seasons, it still has rocking summer days, with a layed back atmosphere. You can head down to Lygon St on a summer late evening like 1-2am and the area will still be pumping with people of all ages chilling out, eating/drinking.

It's a multicultural hub. Head down into the CBD (city) and you've got every single culture from around the world living there. From restaurants, cafe's, bars, pubs & clubs. To the nightlife to the waterfront areas to crown casino. Melbs got it all.

Property wise while Melb CBD area is a tad pricey, it's all relevant to your income and cost of living. You can pick up cheaper rental or buy the more you go out of the CBD area.

Sydney property pricing in comparison is way much more, dunno why but it's always been that way. If you take away their bridge and Opera House the've got bugger all else going for em.
