Is Darwin or Brisbane/Queensland as peaceful as Canberra?
I was in Canberra a few years ago and found it more quiet and peaceful than Sydney. How is the situation of Darwin, Brisbane and QLD in general? Is there a lot of people and traffic congestion?
The level of traffic congestion and noise is directly related to the population. Canberra is also a planned city while Sydney, Brisbane and Darwin are not. Roads in Canberra are designed to move traffic without congestion. Roads in Sydney and Brisbane were designed for horse drawn carts.
