I live in New Zealand. Best thing is we have a small population! There is lots of space and most of our cities are not overcrowded. If you want to get away from the city it is a very short drive and you can spend the weekend in peace and quiet. There is a huge variety of landscapes and environments - hot beaches, grassy deserts, huge forests, mountains, snow, lakes, caves, and no dangerous animals. We are very safe, have low unemployment and most people can live comfortably.

The worst thing is also our small population! We miss out on things that countries with more people get, like visiting bands, music festivals, decent public transport, some job markets, variety of industry. One of our biggest (and most relied-upon) industries is dairy, and it is messing up our rivers and lakes with pollution.

Australia has really high wages, snakes, spiders, and Alf Stewart.
