?where to live SA. You advise
I am looking for possible places to settle in SA. Not too bothered about being close to capital. Would like Small/Medium size place coastal would be good. Good schools for kids. Good general hospital for my work (reg nurse). To appeal to family with kids with things to do. Any ideas??

I always thought Victor Harbour was for retiree's?OH and I were there last year and it was as dead as a doornail.(I have spent 30 years living in SA)To the original poster,I think any SA coastal town is going to be very very quiet,except during school holidays.Unless you specifically want a town,why not opt for a beach suburb?Fairly easy drive to Women and Childrens hospital,Royal Adelaide,Queen Vic ect for work.Kids would have more to do,city being close by.

Re: ?where to live SA. You advise
The op was asking a general question , and i answered i dont, think he was worried about the excitement factor , i have lived in SA for 48 years and find Victor Harbor [correct spellling] a nice place to visit, but as you say it is generally known as " Gods Waiting Room" i,m quite sure the kids would find plenty to do in Victor.....Another boom area is the copper triangle , Walllaroo ,Kadina , moonta /port hughes, booming at the moment, new hotels and a greg Norman designed golf course being built..........mm
Victor's a nice place,but for whatever reason I always feel slightly depressed whenever I've been there.(Maybe to do with Gods waiting room!)
