The Lifestyle bit
Melbourne is regularly ranked as one of the most liveable cities in the world, and honestly, it’s not hard to see why. Incredible food, cafés, arts, live sport, beaches, wineries, national parks and easy international travel all sit on your doorstep.
Prefer a slightly slower pace? Geelong offers waterfront living, riverside walks, amazing cafés, wineries, golf courses and the famous Surf Coast nearby. With Torquay, the Great Ocean Road and beautiful beaches close by, it’s easy to see why so many people are choosing Geelong for a more relaxed lifestyle without giving up city conveniences.
