Living in SA

South Australia balances the demands of commerce and industry with a great lifestyle and a high standard of living.  In short, it’s a great place to live, to work and do business.

South Australia’s quality of life is second-to-none. Adelaide was rated one of the world’s top seven cities in which to live (Source: Economist Intelligence Unit's Liveability Survey December 2008) and is among the world’s least expensive cities in which to live.

This is a place where you can have both a career and a family life. Adelaide is a perfectly-sized city of one million people with everything in easy reach of the city centre. Metropolitan beaches stretch for many kilometres, the scenic Adelaide Hills are close by and there are 400 events and festivals year-round.

Adelaide has a world-class education system that includes five internationally recognised universities, an extensive vocational training system, a wide range of specialised tertiary institutions and a highly-regarded primary and secondary school sector.

Adelaide is an easy gateway to the Outback. It’s close by the dramatic Flinders Ranges, the natural beauty of Kangaroo Island, and the state’s wonderful vineyards, which produce some of the world’s great wines.

With its combination of low living costs, some of Australia's most affordable housing, with great amenities and entertainment events, Adelaide offers an enticing mix of great lifestyle and employment options.
