Different lifestyle i.e can be touristy areas therefore busy traffic and people wise.
More for your money..uum..again...not too sure. House prices have gone up like crazy over here these last two years.I think you'd also pay more if you lived in the coastal regions. Have you tried the Real Estates in those areas? Here's a good one to start with

As for the climate; again it's all about personal preferance. I thought Qld would be a lot hotter and a lot more humid but actually it's been bareable. Having said that, I gather this year has been "odd" i.e not as hot and not as humid as previous years. Only you can establish various climatic differences and which area would suit you/your family best.
Anyways...the crux of it is Brisbane isn't everyone's cup o tea...so you've just got to weigh up the pros and cons and do lots of research [as you are doing
] as I'm sure everywhere has it's good and bad parts.Only you will know what will suit you all best.
Good luck![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)

What with Moreton being the second largest sand island in the world and all, I'd hope so too

I absolutely love it over there, the water is that aqua green colour, you can swim/snorkle/dive in the wrecks; last time I was there, about 3 weeks ago I saw a shark and a sting ray, as well as several pods of dolphins.

Theres plenty of beautiful coastal towns with great beaches between Sydney and Brisbane you may want to consider, but they would'nt have the employment opportunities of Sydney or Brisbane.
