Leigh, I would have nothing to say about any of the so-called professionals involved in the Real Estate rental market. But I will make an exception here for a firm called Rentola who have died into their creepy datasets to extract some useful information for the common good. Specifically, in which rental market in Australia would you be best placed to survive a zombie uprising.
What if the world is taken over by a new epidemic that turns people into zombies? What if a new war breaks out, a war between the living and the dead? And where, in Australia, will it be most likely to survive? We created 5 groups of data (Vulnerability, Hideouts, Supplies, Safety, Mobility), analyzed each of them, and found the best australian city based on the average of the 5 groups. So, if you're not lucky enough to live in the safest city or state in the event of a global zombie apocalypse, we suggest you to fix that by using our site to find accommodation in a right place.
Spoiler. It's Brisbane, of course. I have written extensively about this before. Not only would the zombies quickly rot and disintegrate in our humid, tropical climate, but the local architecture, with many houses raised up on stilts, is purpose-designed to fend off a swarm of the shambling dead.
At the other end of the survivability spectrum? Sorry, Hobart, you’re ambulatory dead meat.
As a zombie apocalypse is sure to start in a major city, living in the regions must be an advantage, giving us time to prepare. There must be a super yacht down at the new marina I could, um, borrow.
And there's another reason Brisbane, or Queensland in general, will be safe, what with the likes of Malcolm Roberts, Gerard Rennick, Pauline, etc; no self-respecting zombie would be seen dead chasing those brains.
Sure, good to live in while the living is good. But I don't think any major city is ideal when the undead start roaming and hungering for those tasty brains. Mrs W and I are well positioned near the top of a small hill, with good sightlines, solid walls and defendable borders. More importantly, it's a small city with the ability to grow most small crops.
I think the tricky part is that I have nearly no meaningful skillset for being valuable in the Z-Apocalypse. I'm not a smithy, mechanic, medic or farmer. Ah well, maybe there'll still be a need for public servants.
I've seen those 100 lane wide roads up there clogged on a normal work day. In fact, i was caught in an exodus the last time they closed the borders because of a pandemic. That was horrendous and i did cast my mind back to apocalypse movies and highways clogged with cars filled with bodies.
I do feel Perth deserves a higher ranking than 4 in this list. Based on recent pandemic data, an outbreak is likely to start in Sydney, which gives the Sovereign Nation of Westralia time to close the border and shoot on sight any dodgy Easterners concealing zombie bites looking to cross into the hermit kingdom 🤔
For the record. There are coffee shops and bars in Melbourne that you can't find with a guide, a map and very specific directions. We could hunker down in any of these quality establishments and ride out the first two waves while sipping lattes and munching on artisan croissants. And we are perfectly set for night foraging as we only dress in black regardless of the conditions. Melbourne wins, hands down.
Kalgoorlie. Lure them over the edge into the super pit, capacity in the millions.

Yeah Hobart sucks, it's at the end of the world with or without an apocalypse
