Most people do not live in Sydney. It is the city with the largest population.

Sydney was the site of the first European settlement in Australia, so it was natural for people to settle there first before moving out into other areas. The climate is quite temperate compared to many other regions of Australia, and it is built on a beautiful natural harbour; these are other factors contributing to the city's large population.

Over 92% of the Australian population are urban dwellers along the east and southeastern quadrant of the continent, ranging from Brisbane, the Gold and Sunshine Coasts of southern Queensland, down the New South Wales coastline to Victoria and its capital, Melbourne. The reason is that this is the most fertile region of Australia, with the most flowing, permanent rivers. The land is ideal for intensive agriculture, and the climate is far more temperate than in most other areas.

The southeast Australia is densely populated because the other parts of Australia is either hot and dry or is desert but the southeastern part has temperate monsoon with deciduous forests of Eucalyptus Trees.
