cyberspook (Australia)

I have lived and worked in a medium sized city by Australian standards for many years. There was plenty of work and housing prices were manageable, but the lifestyle was hectic and full of stress. When I sold my business and moved to a very small town on an island, there were fewer jobs here, but the housing prices were cheap, and the lifestyle was light and care free. This kind of life suits me suits me most, and I will not be moving any time soon. Choosing between living in a city or smaller area depends on what your life goals are. If you want money, you should go to a city; but if you want a peaceful life, with good health, then smaller areas all the way.
