悉尼生活成本再次位列最高
6月28日消息 据最新公布的2006年人口普查统计显示,悉尼再次当选澳大利亚生活成本最高的城市。
澳大利亚统计局地区总监Ian Ewing说,悉尼平均周收入高于澳大利亚其它城市12个百分点。
但他指出,高出来得一点点工资被更高的租金和房屋贷款抵消了。
"房租中间价格为每周250元,大大高于每周190元的全国平均价格。每月房屋贷款还贷额也高出全国平均水平四成。"
Pricey Sydney tops census again

The findings of the 2006 census show Sydney remains the most expensive Australian city to live-in.
The Regional Director of the Australian Bureau of Statistics, Ian Ewing, says the average weekly wage in Sydney is 12 per cent higher than the rest of Australia.
But he says that is countered by higher rents and bigger mortgage bills.
"The median weekly rent in Sydney was higher, 250 dollars per week compared to 190 for all Australians," he said.
"In Sydney, flats made up 26 per cent of dwellings, which is nearly twice the proportion for Australia as a whole."
"Monthly mortgage repayments in Sydney were also 40 per cent higher than for Australia as a whole."
"Nevertheless, nearly one in every five Australians is a Sydneysider."
Sydney's population is growing at a slower rate than other capital cities, at just four per cent since 2001.
Sydney bucks the languages trend
The latest figures show that almost three quarters of Lebanese-born Australians live in Sydney.
Mr Ewing says Arabic is the most common language other than English spoken in NSW homes.
"The most popular second languages spoken at home in Australia continue to be Italian, Greek and Cantonese," he said.
"By contrast with the rest of Australia, Arabic, Cantonese and Mandarin are the most popular second languages spoken at home in Sydney." |
