Well, I guess it could have been (or been close to it by now), if so many successive governments in the last 32 years hadn't been so slack in general, with all the Vic rail and road infrastructure. And now the current government is having to play catch up. But trying to do too many things at once, unfortunately.

Melbourne is till up there, though, in 3rd spot. It's not as if it's back at number 10, like it was in 2022. And out of 172 countries, I'd say being 10th, 3rd or 1st is a mighty fine achievement.
@jackmag4056 Because there are so many, MANY factors taken into account, when making such a decision on liveable city. There's so much more to it, than whether they simply have a train that runs directly to the main airport. It's all about their urban quality of life based on assessments of stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education and infrastructure. Besides, Melbourne does have the SkyBus City Express service that runs from the CBD to the airport and back, which starts at 4am and finishes at 1am and runs every 15 minutes. So, it's not as if peoples only options are to catch cabs or hitchhike to get to the airport. 😜 Anyways, the city has done very well for decades, especially regarding tourism, without it totally collapsing simply because there isn't a little old train from the city to the airport. And let's not forget that the Melbourne to Sydney flight path is the 5th busiest domestic airline route in the world. Which just proves that people are not flying in and out of Melbourne, having hardly any way of getting into the CBD from the airport.
The 20 year period 1980 to 2000 was the height of Melbourne's amenability, livability and sociability for people of all economic means. Now, sadly, its property is unaffordable, its cost of living has skyrocketed, its roads are gridlocked, its air quality is woeful, its once vibrant manufacturing base has disappeared, its economy is narrowly focused, its streets are unsafe, its crime rates have soared, its government finances are in tatters, and its community is polarised and divided.
Property can't be entirely unaffordable, since houses are still always being bought and sold all the time, especially on weekends. Cost of living is a problem around the globe. Not something restricted to just Melbourne alone. Roads have long been gridlocked, even back in the 1980's to 2000. Anyone who says otherwise is either looking through rose coloured glasses or is a liar. Or perhaps wasn't even born then. Melbourne's air pollution level is generally low and is classified in the 'good' air quality category. Compared with so many other major cities around the world. As with the cost of living, manufacturing has been lost all over Australia and much of western countries. Can't make that into another Melbourne problem all on its own. And HOW specifically, is the economy "narrowly focused" these days? Streets are no more unsafe than they were 30-40 years ago. And crimes rates have NOT "soared". In fact, crimes like homicide and related offences, actually peaked in 2001. Today, they're considerably lower than what they were in the 90's, which was the worse decade for such crimes in the last 30 years. And that's despite the increase in population numbers since the 1990's, as well. The finances are in tatters for a lot of governments around the world. No thanks to the pandemic. Again, it's not just a Melbourne issue on its own. And its peoples constant negative and bigoted attitudes, on BOTH SIDES of politics, is what causes the polarisation and division that exits today in Melbourne, all over Australia and so many countries around the world. See, some people can spin it however they like, whether they tell the entire truth or not. And they can go around constantly painting terrible and miserable pictures of how things supposedly are nowadays, particularly in Melbourne. But if you're always going around lying, whilst trying to turn those lies into repeated rhetoric to constantly vilify certain people. Then that's on the individuals who choose to view the world so pessimistically. And will only lead to living a miserable life until they grow old and have nobody around. Because, after all, who wants to be around such negative and nasty people like that forever.
Anyone who claims traffic congestion back in the early 90's was apparently not an issue, is either very forgetful, ignorant or wasn't actually alive or old enough to see it for how it truly was. I know for a fact that Hoddle St, Punt Rd, Bell St, Manningham Rd, Tulla, Monash and Eastern Fwys, etc, all were a pain in the rear, even back in those days.

In other words I'll go up to anything via 2000, anything beyond that a big nope. Less said about 2021 variant the better as nothing good will come out of it. Great doco btw.
Gim'me a break, you clown. The 80s and 90s were not the glory days for Melbourne. The ghost-town vibe of the city centre on weekends and after 6:00pm on regular business days, and those hideous warehouses across the Yarra, were just the beginning. The country (and Victoria in particular) was in the midst of a big world recession when this doco came out. More Melbournians were heading North of the "Murray" than vice-verser. This trend reversed by the mid 00s and didn't change until Covid came along and Danny Boy wrecked everything. But hopefully we'll recover from that quickly. Move to Adelaide if you don't like progress.
Well that's not very nice here?! Yeah I'm old but I don't look it (probably look and will still be better looking than you) and I have the ability to adapt not by choice but by a survivalist mentality here.

The greatest Olympic games have been 1956 Melbourne, 1984 Los Angeles, 1988 Seoul & 1992 Barcelona. 1991 was when Melbourne first was given the title of Worlds most liveable city. The ironic thing is Melbourne has been Australia's best city to live in for quality of life and living standards since the 1850s and still is. Perth has occupied second place for most of that period. The other interesting little know fact about one of the females appearing in this video was that they once entered the Alfred Hospital one night in 1992 after a champagne bottle got stuck in their anus. A bit of sexual experimentation gone wrong! 😉
Sydney and Brisbane are the largest suburban sprawls in the world, with the possible exception of Los Angeles. Tokyo is the most populous, and generally has been so since whenever.
Having the largest urban sprawl is not something to boast about. After all, that only shows that it takes people in the outer suburbs so much longer to get into the heart of the city, or to get from one side of the city to the other. That being said, I couldn't find anything on Sydney supposedly being up there as the largest. Nor even as one of the largest. And Brisbane WAS, some years back. But it appears that Perth has taken that title now, in more recent years. While Sochi in Russia comes second.

Coming from Sydney to Melbourne for work, it was then regarded as " rust bucket " ! This was not done frivolously. Melbourne and Victoria were in dire straits.

Aussies are are no longer having enough kids. Particuarly the white Aussies. The fertility rate is below replacement level. It was already low when this particulsr doco came out. Same with the rest of the Western Hemisphere. So we can't keep relying on white Christian immigrants from Europe to keep Australia afloat, because them leaving their own countries to migrate here is essentially accelerating the demise of their own homelands too. You can thank the 60s revolutions for that. Reliance on multiculturalism from EastAsia and the 3rd World, is only a symptom of the problems the hippie movement caused. Trying to encourage white Aussies to return to the good old Western religious traditions, is really the only way to go from here if you want to see Christians remain the majority. But good luck with that. The damage is irreversible now.

As for the Greens and those so-called teal "Independents", I think you know where I stand on that one. But the root of the cause is the changing attitudes of the people, not the government. The old traditions are dying. Family structure is in the toilet for the most part. Gay marriage is now legal. People are getting fatter and lazier, and the list goes on.

I've lost my respect for Liberal and will gladly spit on the graves of Labour for abandoning the working class long ago. As for the Greens and those so-called teal "Independents", I think you know where I stand on that one.
But the root of the cause is the changing attitudes of the people, not the government. The old traditions are dying. Family structure is in the toilet for the most part. Gay marriage is now legal. People are getting fatter and lazier, and the list goes on. Who in their right mind wants to try and raise their own kids anymore if our own kids are just going to be bombarded with corporate and institutional left-wing sickening propaganda?
@@eddielong8663 I support gay marriages actually...

🤦♂️
Then don't sook about non-Christian-European immigrants making up the majority of immigration these days. Supporting gay marriage essentially aligns yourself with emotion-driven far-left "progressives" who also tend to advocate for less babies being born ("environmental" reasons), while simultaneously advocating that we swing our borders open for illegal 3rd World immigrants to swarm in, for the sake of "human decency". Start using your head, because you're essentially part of the problem.
Geez. That took a turn, didn't it? There I was thinking you were switched on. How mistakened I was.
the knockers might not be fans of melbourne but i doubt the opposite is true
What the flying frick was that taxi at the start? I lived in Brisbane for 30 years and we never had those things. I guess that's why everyone put shit on Melben.
I’m from Melbourne, and I have no idea! 😂
