Thank you for the reply. I was wondering the average cost of electricity/gas/water etc on a standard 3 bed home. We are looking at Kingston or possibly closer to Hobart if possible. If you have any recommendation or advice in general it would all be greatly received. You can never have enough information when it comes to this stuff as moving my family half way round the world is a rather big step. Just to note i am not crazy and doing this blindly as i have visited Hobart a couple of times for work. :-)

Hi All, I will be moving to Hobart soon with my family on a subclass 457. I will be the only person working in the household initially as my wife will stay at home to look after our youngest son. I will be picking up $5590.50 each month after tax and am wanting to know if this is a good enough wage to have a nice life in Hobart. We will need to rent initially and then will look to buy a house after a few months with money we have saved up. However i would like to know if we are going to be able to afford a nice standard of living when having to take all the bills out of this salary including rent. I look forward to your replies. Neil
