Hi everyone!
So I am new to these forums and I must say there is a huge amount of information here, I think I will be working my way through it for a long time!
Im sure there is a thread (or 12) for this question but here goes anyway.
My situation is this:
Myself and my wife will be moving to Sydney very soon. She has a job lined up and I dont, although I do plan on getting one asap.
We are looking to move to a nice, safe area ideal for raising kids. We would like good restuarants, schools, parks, pubs and overall a nice environment for young children to grow up. Our days of nightclubs are finished!
Our budget is probably around the 400-500 per week mark although this can go a little higher if need be. My wife will be working either in the Bankstown or Penrith areas so somewhere with decent transport links (max 1 hour commute by bus/train) would be good to know. I have seen that maybe Bella Visa/Baulkham Hills areas are nice - what is transport like for these places?
I have been reading so much conflicting information that it would be good to know what you guys think. What is the general crime rate in Sydney anyway, compared to say London/Edinburgh or similar?
Thanks in advance for any help, as I say, if this question has been asked many times please point me in the right direction!
