In Sydney (admittedly cooler but still hot) our house rarely needs AC due to trees. Trees make a big difference!

- bigger_cheese 3y agoIt depends where in Sydney you are - if you live near the coast it is quite livable. The outer suburbs can be absolute hell. Parts of Western Sydney etc can be quite bad in the summer. I remember hearing at one point a year or so ago Penrith was the hottest place on earth I think it hit 48C or something like that. I grew up in Canberra (which is inland and sits in a valley) it was like living in a giant clay bowl all the heat settles in and is absolutely stagnant not much of a breeze to speak about at all. Summer there was pretty miserable (and winter as well). I now live on the South Coast of NSW - I can get away with a ceiling fan and opening my windows, we get a regular afternoon sea breeze which cools everything down.
