Billy, Not sure on Roxburgh park. Although I work in Hawthorn east and can confirm its a pretty good area, camberwell which is next to Hawthorn is also very nice. Cambewell has quite a big shopping area with nice restaurants etc. check out Realestate.com.au for house price but at a guess i Would say you'd get a nice 2 bed flat or small 3 bed house for about $300 p/w, which is probably slightly more compared to some area's but well worth it.

tracey and Peter...Mornington and the surrounds are nice with affordable housing but I doubt there would be much work locally. You'd probably find yourself travelling to the Melbourne Suberbs for most of your work which you could but you'd be looking at an hours commute. Do you have to live in a regional area for visa reasons?? If not id still suggest living in the south east coast but move closer to Melbourne for work. If you do have to live in a regional area maybe look at Geelong, not quite as nice in my opinion but there will be more work than Mornington.

Angela...theres so many places to suggest, if you want to be near the beach with good schools maybe look at Moordiallic or Mentone. There quite affordable and under an hours commute into the city. If you see any area's your interested in let me know and tell you what I think.

Gary, ive never been to Sunbury mate but ive just asked a friend in the office and he didnt think it was too great. Sorry couldnt be more help.
