Today, it’s getting personal! We’re all clearly fans of Brisbane, but just what is it that makes the city so awesome?
This question is also being posted on our sister sites, Sydneyism and Melbournism, so defend your city!
Exactly why is Brisbane so much better than Melbourne or Sydney?

Sydney is so crowded and fast. You can’t slow down and take the city in, or you get bowled over. The harbour is pretty but everyone is in such a hurry they don’t take notice of it.
I do love Melbourne but I think we’re luckier with the weather here in Brissie. Winter in Brisbane is nothing short of spectacularly gorgeous.
Brisbane has a great sense of humour. We laugh at ourselves and everything around us. We don’t take ourselves too seriously. And we’re not afraid to have a go at the risk of looking stupid.
Coming from Melbourne I find it hard to say this place is better, however I agree with Kath in that the people up here are much more friendlier and willing to help. The weather is also a massive one up on Melbourne, although I do miss rugging up during winter.
Sydney is full of arrogant snobs, I cant stand them
Brisbane is so much better then Sydney or Melbourne, everything is usually close at hand or just a short 10 min drive away. Plus up here you can still have BBQ’a in Winter oh yeah love the BBQ’s
