What Victoria take-home buys, city by city
Taxed on Victoria rules, $95,000 leaves $6,173 a month — and against that $6,173, where you spend it moves the outcome more than the Victoria rules do: Sydney asks $2,900 for a one-bedroom city-centre flat against $1,900 in Brisbane, a factor of 1.5.
On Victoria take-home that is $4,273 left after rent in Brisbane against $3,273 in Sydney: a $1,000 monthly gap from the same gross salary and the same tax code.
| City | 1-bed city-centre rent | Share of take-home | Left after rent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brisbane | $1,900 | 31% | $4,273 |
| Melbourne | $2,200 | 36% | $3,973 |
