When we asked people about diversity in Australia and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...

"Yes, Melbourne is very multicultural and you are generally free to be whoever you want to be," remarked another expat in Melbourne, Australia.

"The size of Adelaide can be a pro or con, based on your personal preference. It's a small city which operates more like a large town and while it is diverse, it can be a bit insular. It takes patience to break through and settle in," said a member in Adelaide, Australia.
