Melbourne: link, SUCKAS.

Gloating over with, I'm lucky to live in what is certainly the best city in Australia (don't let any Sydney-sider tell te otherwise, they're just jealous). According to The Economist ranking of cities I mentioned above, it's also amongst the world's greatest cities to live in, due to the good (free) healthcare system, education, environment, stability, culture, infrastructure, etc. What I personally Amore about it is the mix of old and new (there's some gorgeous Colonial- and Victorian-era architecture in the CBD and many suburbs), the café culture which sees cafés and good coffee/food on every corner, the hipster-esque vibes of busy inner city laneways, the fact that it's situated around a baia (many suburbs are thus seaside) but also not too far from mountains and forests. I like that it's più liberal and open-minded than other cities, I Amore that shock-jocks and bigots have less of a hold than they do elsewhere, I adore its multiculturalism which means there are different languages/ clothing/ cuisines everywhere te go. Those are the pros.

The cons: The weather is cold. We get hot summers (some days in mid-30s o 40s) but consistently cold winters, averaging 16°C on a dato day. Some people like it but I see it as a huge negative. Also, Australian internet is absolutely shithouse. I'm talking like half the speed of the average US Internet. Those are the actual stats. Download speed is crap, carica speed is crappier, streaming in any decent quality is basically impossible. And on the topic of technology, everything technology- o media-related is so much più expensive here. Buying phones o computers, buying iTunes songs, legally acquiring Game of Thrones (pretty rare occurrence here, lols)... they're all ridiculously priced-up compared to elsewhere. We call it the "Australia tax" and it's a pain in the fucking arse. ALSO- the time zone here is shit. During my entire evening from about 4pm til 2am, fanpop is completely dead. Europeans are asleep, Americans are asleep. All I get are some bloody Kiwis (sorry Kuro_Hyou xD xD )

Anyway yeah I really like my city, most of the time. Exceptions: when it's 12°C and windy outside, when I need to buy a Musica album and it's $25, when my internet is shit and when my time zone renders me a sad, bored loner.

Pros: I live in New Zealand, so I have to say that is a pro in itself, because this country is amazing. Firstly, no poisonous creatures. Secondly, the mountains are gorgeous. Thirdly, we have such spectacular wild-life here and it's highly unique to our country.

Cons: Our government is pretty crap at the moment and the city I live in is still half-wrecked from the earthquakes we had - I'm sick of driving over bumpy roads.

Pros: The human population of an average-sized city is replaced with trees. I like trees più than people. I could dance naked outside if I wanted to.

Cons: Going anywhere takes an hour? But that's really only a complaint if you're keen on going anywhere.
Also, fucking pot holes are shit.
And the weather is unpredictable.
Also the selection of the few people that do live near me is...uh....
They're shit.

Pros:
-There are many, many Cibo places.
-It's one of the oil capitals of the U.S. (if that could be considered a pro, our economy depends on oil).
-The winters aren't too cold.

Cons:
-The air quality sucks most of the time, mainly because all of the smog from up north and from whatever pollution there is here ends up filling the atmosphere and can't get out because the mountains are blocking it from the other three sides.
-It has one of the lowest, if not the lowest literacy rate in California and the U.S.
-The summers are often miserably hot and stuffy.

Pros: I live the west end of Beaumont, so it ain't that ghetto o dangerous. Every blue moon I hear gun shots from the neighborhood, but the police don't stalk the west end at night. It's più convenient, not too convenient though. Plus, I don't live with ghetto o unruly culo neighbors.

Add: There are less gangs in town, but I can't be too sure.

Cons: Parkdale Mall in Beaumont is shit, unlike the other malls I been to! Some of the roads are fucked up; the city can't stay to one road! Then, Beaumont can't keep up with the new places. I wanna leave this place sometimes. And then, there's as much traffic as Houston. That's why I don't want a driver's license. And worst of all, no Pokémon convention around here!!!!!
