Default Anyone live in Torquay, Victoria?

Hi there, We (me + hubby + 2 kids; Tom 4 & Holly 2) are due to move out at the end of August and would like to rent in Torquay. I just wondered if anyone lived around there and could enlighten me on what the area is like for young families? Thanks, Claire

I have son Tom aged 4 next month and daughter Holly aged 2. How old are your kids?

We're lucky as Rob has been offered a great job at Ford in Geelong so we're getting sponsored by them so its less for us to worry about although saying that its happened really quickly and they want him there for 1st Sept! We haven't even got a visa yet still completing forms but they said they can get it arranged in 2-4 weeks! We're just dealing with Fords visa & relocation agency at the mo............
