Griff visits Sydney, not the capital but the dominating metropolis of Australia, and its first city since that nation's foundation from a fabulous natural harbor as British penal colony, named after its first governor.
It developed into an affluent, suburban society, considered one of the most pleasant cities in the world. Griff experiences many positive aspects and the local, immigrated and commuting Aussies' taste for sports and gambling.

This video is about 10 years old and the city has changed a lot since then. Also the places visited are probably the most expensive suburbs in the southern hemisphere. As beautiful as my home town is, this is the life of about 1 % of sydneysiders

@Solitary confirmed Shitzophrenic Lets just forgot about those super rich, even chinese milionaires cant afford these compare to 10 or even 20 year ago. i dont really think only chinese brought their money over to Australia, just look at the price in north beaches, chinese rarely go there. European and american super rich also move to sydney, BTW i live in Hills District, its almost unaffordable for most middle class, that include chinese milionaires, i cant imagery how local people think about it, getting paid 50k after tax and the price for single house is over a million, up to 1.5 millions. the people you mention cant even make a living in west sydney. BTW nobody is loyal to ccp, they just loyal to money, as soon as the party found out they are corrupted, they flee to Australia and Canada then they become anti china chinese, with all the dirty money from china. Honest people like us are dying, thanks to those super rich, not only chinese super rich, but they are one who got targeted.

@Solitary confirmed Shitzophrenic No matter how bad the relationship between nations business will never stop, Media will just ignore it because the government and these mega corp said so. To be honest i dont think this country has future, they already sold their future, even im immigrants myself the whole point of moving here is to get away from asian mentally and life style, if Australia become Asia i rather go back to where i came from. And we have to face real problem such as low wages and high living cost, and unaffordable real estate, like you said an avg middle working class can not afford a house compare to 15 years ago. soon we cant afford a 2 bedroom apartment. younger generation are already stuck with their parent because the renting cost so much. their kids probably end up in basement.

Thank you for this video, I enjoyed it. Learnt a few things I didn't know, went with you (virtually) to a few places around Sydney I'd never been and enjoyed your positive perspective on Sydney, NSW, Australia. I love the parts of Sydney that I know too. Lived in Sydney for 39 years, enjoying the not too cold winters and the balmy days of Spring and early Summer and the more relaxed vibe of the Northern Beaches of Sydney. I did ordinary jobs, always rented but reasonably managed to live & survive in the pleasant surroundings of the beachside suburbs of Manly up to Newport say. I live in the country now and miss the cosmopolitan lifestyle and the sea breezes.

I lived in Sydney some 20 years ago now. Lived in Bondy, Coogy, Neutral Bay, Woloomolloo too. Loved my time there. ❤❤But as someone mentioned below, life got ordinary... work, bills etc 😂😂. But I always appreciated ferry rides to CBD or my jogs from work across Harbour Bridge back home... could not afford both journey by ferry twice a day. It felt super far from Europe, where I come from and at times lonely too. Anyhow, got many fond memories and I am glad I had this experience.

I’m proud to have lived in Sydney for all my 75 years. I’ve travelled all over the world but wouldn’t live anywhere else. Sydney is such a beautiful city…the Harbour is just breathtaking, the beaches are wonderful. What a lifestyle. Even if you live in the western suburbs ( where I have lived) the lifestyle is terrific…close for a drive to our wonderful Blue Mountains or a one hour trip in the train to the beach or the harbour. It’s free to all. This was a wonderful documentary! And…the weather is just perfect!

What's the deal with half the people on this comments section bagging this documentary because it doesn't paint a "realistic" portrait of Sydney. Of course it doesn't. It's a positive documentary that seeks to advertise Sydney by highlighting the best parts of it. What, if you don't mind my asking, is wrong with that? If you want to watch a documentary on the poverty and squalor that is found in western Sydney, tune in to Four Corners on the ABC.

Talks about Sydney's suburbs. Misses all of Greater Western Sydney. Western Sydney is where most Sydneysiders live, larger than the harbour city and is where the real character is at. It comprises the Inner West like Chatswood, Burwood, Strathfield, Rhodes, Meadowbank, Macquarie, Rhyde Bankstown (bit further out), the second Central Business district of Parramatta, the Southwest including Liverpool, Campbeltown, the direct west like Blacktown, Rousehill the far west like Penrith, and even further west like the Blue Mountains and Katoomba. There's north west where with the hills and hills that stack on top of more hills like Castle Hills, Baulkham Hills, Hornsby Galston, Etc. Sydney is the largest city in Australia, with a population of 5 million people, and the suburbs are large, populated and diverse. The city is planning to create a third CBD at Badgery's Creek to house the new international airport. It's not all sunshine and beaches but it is home.

No, I don't live somewhere that has a sea or river view but I live somewhere where there is a vista of gum and other native trees and wake to the sound of the kookaburras, magpies and cockatoos in downtown suburbia in this major city.

So many working as taxi drivers at the time not knowing where to go or that you use your horn in an emergency not to express frustration.

Best city on earth, it's good and bad is what makes it what it is. I know it's not for everyone, but being born and raised in Sydney, and having lived and travelled all over the world - Sydney has elements of all great cities of the world from our grungy inner city, to our opulent harbour side suburbs, to our cultural diversity bringing almost any food (at least as good and sometimes better than from where they originated), and our beaches, parks etc. That's my opinion, if you don't like it I have others 😀

The Eastern Suburbs of Sydney are incredibly beautiful and EXTREMELY expensive. They best, along he southern side of the bay, such as Valclause and Rose Bay, are known as 'Little Israel' for good reason. The outer Western suburbs are hell to live in and inhabited by peoples from all over the world.

Don't believe the hype. Most Sydneysiders spend their weekday morning commuting in trains, buses or, god help them, the car. Hardly anyone can afford to live near the beach. This is like selling a doco of London pretending everyone starts their day with a walk along the Thames

@cumoreview442 3 жыл бұрын
Hardly, I live in the Eastern suburbs and everyone gets up and swims. Your description fits the Western suburbs. The thing is, in the East you live somewhere old and small, but get the beach, whereas in the West you will live somewhere new, maybe a house, and pay less for rent/mortgage but pay more for commuting in time, money and stress. Most people in the East don't own a car, the beach is their gym, socialising is free.... so the cost of living ends up the same.

@@samueldunn5879 People moving out further to buy larger houses is certainly true of some of the outer suburbs but not all. Irrespective, my point was that this documentary creates an unrealistic picture of the lives of the majority of Sydneysiders. The simple truth is that of the roughly 5M inhabitants, most do not start the day with an ocean swim. Yes, some do. Most don't. That's all I'm saying. And yes, I realise our population density is not on the same scale as many other cities around the world. That doesn't change the inaccuracy of this documentary. Cheers

@@sirsillybilly Even if that were true finance (for example) contributes less than 10% of the gross value added to the economy. The real economy is about productivity: creating real goods and services that make a real difference. Finance is mostly not that: it merely exchanges digits that people choose to mutually conjure as having "value". Tourism transfers the productivity of others into an economy; but very little of anything new is created except memories and images, and rather low wages for most that look after them.

None of Jones's videos I've seen so far gives any attention to the poor, the drear, the grim aspects of any city. You may not want to know that, but it's a fact, and the programmes are rather glib and superficial as a result, no doubt charming in their way, especially with Jones in tow, but hardly incisive. In short, light entertainment.
