In general, Sydney is more expensive than most areas of the United States so you will want to devise and use a budget. The cost of living has been compared to that of large cosmopolitan cities in Europe or North America. To give you a better idea, the cost of living is more like that of San Francisco, New York or London than that of Atlanta.
