Updated: Jan 28, 2023

Finding the suburb that's right for you can be daunting. We've put together some tips to make finding your new community a breeze.



  1. Proximity to your job work or school: Consider how long your commute will be and whether public transportation options are available.

  2. Amenities and services: Look for suburbs that have the right amenities and services that are important to you, such as grocery stores, restaurants, parks, and medical services.

  3. Safety: Always be sure to visit the suburb during different times of the day and talk to the locals to get a sense of the area.

  4. Education: If you have children or planning to have one, check the quality of the schools in the area and the availability of daycare options nearby.

  5. Cost of living: Compare the cost of living in a neighbouring suburb to ensure that you can afford to live in the area you're considering.

  6. Lifestyle and community: Research the community and lifestyle of the suburb. See if there is a community website listing community activities and events in the area.

  7. Future development: Research the future plans for the area such as new shopping centres, high rise developments or any other plans that may affect your living experience in the longer-term.
