Here in my suburb of Sydney, which is "well to do" but not in anyway considered premium (like harbour views, beach suburbs etc) you would struggle to find a flat for 600k.

Same with LA. I live in a wealthier neighborhood where you literally can't find anything under a million. Drive 20 minutes away from the beach and put bars on your windows and you are still looking at ~800 for a 1950's box house.

Out of curiosity, where in Sydney are you? I lived in Surry Hills when I was there a couple years ago.
