If you're thinking of a job change, why not make a lifestyle change too? Living and working in Canberra has much more to offer than you may have heard or imagined.
Here are five good reasons to make the change.
The ACT's average full-time weekly income is $1,202 - 15 per cent higher than the national average.
The ACT also enjoys the highest workforce participation rate in the country - this speaks of the employment opportunities for people moving in.
Only 9 per cent of Canberrans report high stress levels, compared to the national average of 12 per cent.
Canberra is a young city - the average age is 32.
It's a "20-minute city", where nothing is really far away and the roads are wide and well maintained.
Canberra is also expanding its shopping, nightlife and cafe/restaurant facilities.
