Reasons to Migrate to Melbourne

Melbourne is culturally diverse and considered one of the most liveable cities in Australia. There are many reasons why people choose to migrate to Melbourne.

Hailed as Australia’s cultural capital, locals and visitors have access to some of the best museums and galleries as well as world class theatres comparable to that of Broadway and London’s West End.

Melbourne’s melting pot of cultures lends itself to a diverse range of cuisines. From casual dining to high-end establishments, Melbourne’s restaurant scene will not disappoint. And don’t forget your coffee, it’s what Melbourne’s known for after all!

For those considering a study visa, Melbourne has some of the best educational institutions in Australia, with two Melbourne-based universities featured in the Top 100 Universities in the World.

Need to get out of the city? There is plenty to see and do in Melbourne’s surrounds. Whether you’re looking to head to the coast, visit a winery or explore the countryside, a visit to the Great Ocean Road, the Yarra Valley or the Mornington Peninsula along with many other local destinations will offer you the opportunity to unwind and take in all Victoria has to offer.
