Comment on Australian Bank Anonymizes and Releases Billions of Records

I put in my numbers to see what it would be like living on the other side of the world (I'm in Dublin, Ireland - it is currently 9C and raining) using the Sydney postcode 2000.

It says my expected house & home costs are $2000, which seems rather high for me. In London and here in Dublin, pretty much everyone my age (mid twenties) is in a houseshare, so we would pay that for the whole property, but split it three ways or so. Is housing just that much more expensive, or what?

You only picked one of the most expensive postcodes - that's the Sydney CBD! Yes, it is VERY expensive. In fact, it is very expensive to live in Sydney, full stop.

Try using a 40?? postcode for Queensland.
