Rural/lifestyle living
Hello everyone.
We are new to the Aussie site and would like to ask you clever people a question.
Australia is a big place I know, and I have read that alot of people live in the main towns, where the work is I quess. But we would like to live more rural but still get to town and work. You may ask what town? and we don't know yet. Wherever OH is offered work as a Senior QS.
Do lifestyle properties exist in Australia the same as NZ?
Hope that doesn't sound a silly question,
Thankyou all in advance

Go to www.realestate.com.au and put in areas you are interested in to find areas research state by state and look on google.com.au and click the map heading to find the areas, there are masses of lifestyle areas that are far enough out to not have the mass of people/traffic but close enough to towns for shopping etc.

Anyway, I second the Gold Coast Hinterland ... look at that realestate site thing and search for Buccan in Queensland and search no longer.
Semi-rural, space to move, handy for the coast, commutable to Brisbane or Gold Coast.
Job done, grab visa, get on plane, live life.

Re: Rural/lifestyle living
No matter what state l'd choose somewhere in the coastal more populated areas rather then the more isolated inland areas. The gold coast hinterland sounds good but theres also plenty of great places further south in NSW and Victoria. Remember often different states have different climates so take into account what kind of weather you like when choosing where in OZ to live.

And what a wonderful day it is ... a wander from South Bank over the new pedestrian bridge up into Roma Street Parkland followed by a leisurely read in in the greenery appreciating the fresh air with a ciggy (no, the price increase has not made any difference) ... what marvellous weather.
