From the massive growth in infrastructure spending, through to an expanding jobs market, relatively affordable housing and enviable lifestyle, the proposition of relocating to the Sunshine State has become even more attractive for those living in the south.

Growth & Optimism

Over the next 6 years, there’s estimated to be over $46 Billion worth of development and infrastructure projects slated for completion in and around Brisbane alone. This will create thousands of jobs, both during the construction phase and well into the future. The ongoing investment in Queensland from both government and corporate entities has created a sense of optimism, one that seems to be muted in other cities and states around Australia. This is reflected in a huge migration north, and Queensland subsequently being titled Australia’s interstate migration capital  by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

The Lifestyle

Boasting a subtropical climate and an average of 283 days of sunshine every year, Brisbane is defined by an energised spirit, a youthful vitality, and a vibrant love of the outdoors. According to Brisbane City’s Investment Attraction Team, this environment is ideal for fostering economic growth and nurturing creativity.   “Our city is fast becoming a hotbed of cutting-edge cultural expression. A strong vision for the future and an easy balance between progress and sustainability deliver an everyday existence that embodies Australia’s status as one of the world’s best countries for quality of life”.
