Newcastle jumps up in liveability


The results of a new survey out today from the Property Council confirms Newcastle as one of the most liveable cities in Australia.

Regional Director for the Property Council Andrew Fletcher says while Newcastle has a lot going for it, there are a few areas which need improvement.

In particular, Newcastle ranked lowly in terms of how residents felt about the city's look and design.

Newcastle beat out Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane to be listed as the fourth most liveable city.
