Default Why the wealthy are leaving London

It's pretty fresh so there's not a whole lot of information available yet. It seems there's connection with safety factors and income migration, and my assumption is they are analyzing the safety being lower as being one reason for high income to be leaving that area. So it may be more of a prosperity analysis/"forecast" than a "safety" study.

This is last year's... https://lif.blob.core.windows.net/li...f.pdf?sfvrsn=2

Australia attracts more high net worth individuals than any other country: analysis

New World Wealth’s 2018 Global Wealth Migration Review suggests that the country’s location is a good base for business in budding Asian countries like Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong and China. The reports states that the nation’s “superior growth” over the past ten years has had an impact on business opportunities and confidence.

Huge companies from Asia, America and Europe set up offices in Australia. This translates to more job opportunities.

Another thing that makes the country so appealing could be safety, particularly for women. Australia was hailed as the safest country in the world for a woman.
Also this is an interesting report as well:

Prosperity Index:

Among the top 10 countries, Canada and Australia have relatively low population densities when compared to the other countries on the list.

The report says a lower population density means less dependence on other countries for trade and resources, less competition for land and resources within country, less waste and pollution, and allows for more wild spaces which improves quality of life for locals.
