Frequently Asked Questions about Adelaide


Where are all these expats from?
 
By far the most expats come from the UK. They create around ten percent of Adelaide's total population. Others come from various South-East Asian countries such as Vietnam, and other parts of Europe including Italy, Greece and Germany. 

What's the weather like?

Adelaide has a climate typical of the Mediterranean. There are very few rain showers and most the days are crystal clear all year around. The temperatures can be uncomfortably hot in the summer and cool in the winter.

Will I need a car?

Adelaide has a dense city centre and a stretching suburban area. If the expat lives in the city centre they will not need a car. Adelaide has good public transport and many places are walkable. Expats in the suburbs will probably need a car.
