Quite often featured among the world’s best countries to live in, Australia is a developed country with a strong economy and a high standard of living. Compared to other nations, Australia offers high-quality and reasonably priced accommodation. Ample natural resources and a solid economy with one of the world’s strongest and safest currencies make it attractive to entrepreneurs and investors as well.

Australia has a well-designed and effective immigration policy. It has about 25 million inhabitants with nearly 25% made up of non-Australian citizens, reflecting the immigration rate and the diverse cultural fabric of the country. Australia also provides the spouses of professionally funded workers with both temporary and permanent entry visas with unhindered labour rights. Permanent residents can also sponsor their relatives for the acquisition of the permanent residence. Now let’s do a deep-dive into some of the advantages that make Australia a preferred destination for skilled workers, students, entrepreneurs and investors alike.

1. Free or Subsidised Healthcare
All Australian citizens, all eligible Australian residents and certain categories of visitors can benefit from the government-run health insurance scheme called Medicare. This system provides access to a wide range of healthcare services, free medical care in public hospitals and lower costs for prescription medicines.

2) Free or Subsidised Education
The Australian education system provides free or subsidised primary, secondary and tertiary education. The Australian public education system has a good reputation for its high quality of students and learning methodologies, following a holistic system that puts equal emphasis on academic learning, sports, cultural interaction and overall personal development.

3) World’s Most Liveable Cities
Australian cities constantly make it to the top of the best cities to live in the world. The weather also plays a huge part in this, as all four season can be found on the Australian east coast region, with the full experience of living through the blue skies of summer and spring as well as the coolness and crispness of winter and autumn. Apart from this, housing, schools, hospitals, and public transportation infrastructure here are of an exceptionally high standard, resulting in a higher standard of living for its citizens.

 4) Culturally Diverse
An immigrant-friendly nation, Australia boasts a rich arts community complete with theatre, concerts, art exhibits, films and cultural carnivals. It produces some of the finest wine and food, and the rich cultural diversity of its citizens shines widely through its many world-famous restaurants and cafes, strategically located across the country's length and breadth

5) Easy Migration and Citizenship Laws
Australia provides professional workers with permanent and temporary entry visas with unlimited job opportunities. There is no limitation on the number of visas that can be made available through the temporary entry system to professionals and other skilled immigrants. A big advantage for migrants moving to the country is the fact that Australia recognises Dual Citizenship and that children born to Permanent Residents in Australia can apply for citizenship even if their parents don’t yet qualify. All Permanent Residents can eventually qualify to become an Australian citizen.
