Depends which metric you go by. Melbourne urban area is larger but Sydney sprawls out more overall. What I didn’t know until just now is that Brisbane is even larger by that metic at almost 16,000 km², which is pretty fucked
In any case, Aussie sprawl is a real problem. It would be nice if our high density wasn’t built so shit so people would actually be willing to live in them as opposed to all these single family suburban homes.
Yep, equally as fucked up here. Nobody’s gonna buy a place that has borderline non-existent soundproofing and insulation, shit amenities nearby, and a not insignificant chance of becoming uninhabitable due to structural issues.
And you’d still probably be looking at around a million for that.
As much as I hate the sprawl, people don’t really have much or a choice with the state of things.
