Do you mean to live in? Not as good as it was in terms of transport. The buses & trains have gone down the drain. Too many tollways & home prices probably rival New York.
The east-west divide has disappeared though. The CBD has all but moved to Parramatta now, so what was the redneck west is quite cosmopolitan these days. Probably the biggest overall change you would notice is the influx of arabic-speaking immigrants. Middle-eastern culture is very prominant & there are a few, let's say, culture-adjustments occurring. We had racial riots & so on, last year & there is still friction about that mostly stems from the bigger picture ie. war on terror & all that jazz.
Climate-wise, its been getting wetter & milder. That is, winter is a couple of weeks away & I am still out a midnight, gardening in a t-shirt. Summer never got that hot though. I never went swimming once, come to think of it but maybe that's just me getting old.

OK. It would have been way different then. Back in '67 I was busy being born so I can only imagine what anything was like then. Good year though. :)
Sounds like Florida is pretty tropical alright. By your description it would be like Cairns. I found the humidty really hard to bear up there. 90% is hell really.
