Hello and greetings from Tassie. It does get cold here. Hobart gets snow on MT Wellington and can get as cold as UK but it's a lovely city and easy to live in. The summers are beautiful in Hobart. perfect. Tassie generally is one of the safest places for children although all the usual precautions have to be taken as with anywhere. The west coast is probably the most undesirable weatherwise and in almost every other way. We used to live there and got sick of the rain.... The scenic beauty in tas is unparalleled - to die for.
Real Estate, Property, Land and Homes for Sale, lease and rent - realestate.com.au and
Real Estate for Sale, Rent and Share @ Domain.com.au are excellent real estate sites for housing. Rents are becoming somewhat scarce especially in the cities, with the rise in interest rates for buyers. The pace is far slower than on the mainland. No-one rushes here. The food is the best in the world - King Island cream is exquisite; the cheeses are superb; vegies all excellent and of course fruit. There are many advantages in living in Tas. Just keep enough $$ in reserve so you can go home when you get those pangs, because believe me they will happen. God bless, Liz
