Might be moving to your little spot on the Earth's crust. Where's the best place to live preferably within 30 minutes hike of the CBD? Used to living in Newtown/Enmore in Sydney and Brunswick/Fitzroy in Melbourne.

@maniacalmanicmania By hike do you mean actually walking or just 30 mins travel. Cause its Adelaide 30 min by car is pretty much everywhere.

@maniacalmanicmania basically you're looking at Nth Adelaide or any of the very inner parts of the inner suburbs. I'm partial to the west side, but south and east are nice too ... probably more expensive though.

Budget / priorities / interests?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Budget: We've been lucky to get away with renting the same place for $400-450/w for a while in Sydney's Inner West. Dunno how that translates to what's available in Adelaide. We don't have the moolah to buy.

Priories: No biggies here, just gotta be within 30 mins walk of CBD. Preferably not boring, good food and bars and close to public transport.

Interests: Arts (film, live music), hiking, gym and pool (at least for my partner).

Preferably not boring

😁

Just in case anyone thinks I was taking a shot at Adelaide, I was referring to how suburbia can be boring regardless of whatever city you live in.

adelaide is mostly boring suburbia so gl with that one

source me, lived there for 30 years, will probably be your biggest culture shock coming from sydney, will need to get used to driving 50 in a 60, for everything

Thanks for the heads up. We'll be making a few visits to test the waters before we commit.

Is this Adelaide? Where are all the churches in this picture?...

I've been misled by an ad campaign again!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Dunno. Never been there. Googled Adelaide for the picture.

Check out Norwood, Stepney, Kent town, Parkside, mile end, thebarton, north Adelaide and Adelaide itself. Probably all expensive though. Inner west might be best for price which means mile end and thebarton.

Sorry I forgot to add Hindmarsh and Bowden / Brompton. Inner North West and very cool areas.
