Red Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Terribly worried about finding the right area to live in - where do I start?Nice to see you around again, and congrats on the Visa.... The best place to start is definately in the Adelaide communities section. There has been much discussion lately about area and schools.... there's a fair bit of reading, but it will help wonders!!!All the best,red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strumfie Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Hi - my family and I have just recieved our Visa's for Adelaide. Terribly worried about finding the right area to live in - where do I start?Any idea on which schools are good ??HELP !!!!!!!!You sound just like us a year ago! Your kid usually have to go to school in the area that you live. Public schools are pretty much the same except for a few areas in Adelaide: My friend Leone will only consider Burnside but the rental houses are few and very expensive. I also recommend rental till you figure out which area you like. Some areas are generally considered "below the railway line": Generally the Northern Suburbs like: Salisbury, Elisabeth..(note it is not North Adelaide: this is near the city centre).We looked around for houses and went for interviews at schools in the area till we found a combination that worked for us all. We are staying on the higher ground near Tea Tree Gully, it is generally cooler in summer but also so in winter!I love Adelaide and would probably not consider another city (even if I could); I have state and company sponsorship so I am stuck here.Good luck with the move.Hans< Carina and Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
