What American expats need to know about Australia
Visa
Skills in Demand Visa (Subclass 482) — employer-sponsored, requires 1 year of relevant experience and a salary of at least AU$79,499/yr (from July 2026). After 2 years, eligible for permanent residency via Subclass 186. For retirees, the Investor Retirement Visa (Subclass 405) requires significant assets.
Cost of Living
Excluding rent, a single person needs ~$1,050 USD/mo; a family of four ~$3,700 USD/mo. Rent (1-bed, city center): Sydney ~$2,500, Melbourne ~$1,900, Brisbane ~$1,800, Perth ~$1,700. Groceries run AU$20-30/day per person. Overall comparable to US; Sydney/Melbourne rival LA/NYC but salaries are higher.
Key Fact
Australia has strict immigration quotas for non-EU workers and your employer must prove no Australian can fill the role. The upside: excellent healthcare, outdoor lifestyle, and high wages.
Life in Australia
Beach mornings before work, barbecues in the backyard with cockatoos overhead, and a sun-drenched lifestyle where everything might kill you but everyone is impossibly relaxed about it.
