Living in Darwin
Australia · tropical
Darwin is a compact city of roughly 150,000 people inland in Australia. The climate is tropical. It keeps a balanced mix of locals and visitors and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $2,300. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is generally reliable. People come here for wildlife and birdwatching, fishing, swimming.
Il servizio sanitario pubblico (5/5) è più solido del privato: qui l’assicurazione è un extra, non una necessità. È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio.
