Hiya we choose Brisbane as it seemed to have everything we wanted ,since moving here a few month ago i can honestly say it was worth all the stress the visa process brings ,its a family orientaited place with lots of jobs in most sectors due to the amount of constuction happening.We have met lots of people mainly poms ,,seems alot of us had the same idea ,,only you can choose an area but i would definately consider Brisabne,

Both places are nice, it depends on what type of lifestyle you want.
Adelaide is a small city, which feels more like a big town. The heat is dry, although it can get very hot there. It's got a relaxed feel to it and is easy to get around.
Brisbane is more like a big city, with big city shopping and theatre/art gallery etc. Obviously Adelaide has those too but Brisbane is a little more happening and full-on city life. However, as it's in QLD, which is sub-tropical, the humidity is high ( as in sweat pours down your legs and your make-up runs off! ).
Brisbane is located well for the Gold and Sunshine coast which are the BIG holiday destinations, it really is beach culture there!
