Guys !! What about Redcliffe? Want to see your comments !! =)) Hows the life out there? It seems a bit far away, but looks good !! and close to a beach.

Redcliffe is alright and probably cheaper rent than Bayside, well it was when looked a few months ago. It is close to the beach, plenty bbq's and parks. The commute to CBD is about the same as Bayside. Make sure you walk across that old wooden bridge before they pull it down.

I always think that Redcliffe would be my 2nd choice. A combination of the two would be good :thumbup:
