Where to live.... NSW Bondi, Newcastle area?
Hi guys. Im looking at a job offer (sponsored 457) in the Sydney area mainly working around Bondi Junction and Newcastle with the odd trip into Sydney centre.
Im trying to research the surrounding suburbs for living, crime, cost etc.
I dont mind a commute of an hour or so. Ideally would like to be able to get to the beach at weekends and dont want to be too far from shops, pubs etc.
Any advice on suburbs I should be looking at, or avoiding?

Where are you going to be working most as it is probably best to live there since otherwise you will be looking at a village type place somewhere equidistant from both Sydney and Newcastle.
Bondi Junction may actually be a good choice, plenty of shops and a short trip to the Eastern Beaches but easy access to a train line for getting to Newcastle
