The average daily maximum temperature for Melbourne in the middle of winter is 14 degrees and 25 degrees in the height of summer.

Cost of Living

A significant amount of Victorians also have at least one parent who was born overseas, meaning more than two per cent (and almost 30 per cent of Melburnians) speak a language other than English at home.

The most common groups of people born outside Australia are people from China, the United Kingdom, Italy, Vietnam, New Zealand and Greece.
