young2682 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Hi all, My hubby is starting a job based in sunshine at end July, before today we thought we were going to be elsewhere so now having to start research again! We have two young children not yet at school so any advice/info on nice suburbs surrounding sunshine would be gratefully received. Thanks in advance, Alex :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Pom Queen Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Hi Alex I wouldn't choose Sunshine to live (known as Scumshine to the locals), Broadmeadows or Footscray, have a look at Williamstown, Altona, Point Cook, Sanctuary Lakes, Brunswick, Parkville Kate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance, Alex :wacko: Hiya, My husband also works in Sunshine and he has a lovely 3 bedroom house in West Footscray which costs $410 per week. Ideally he wanted Cairnlea but there were no suitable houses there for us. The commute from West Footscray is 10-12 mins max. I'm not moving over until the end of August so I can't comment on how decent the suburbs are but my OH has said Sunshine isn't too nice. Good luck with the house hunt, I heard it's a nightmare!!:arghh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blobby1000 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Is your husband a nurse? Just asking cos I work as a nurse and a lot of people end up in Sunshine as there is a big hospital there. Sunshine is not really what you dream of when you think of Australia, but as has been said previously Williamstown is nice, Melton, I understand, is dangerous, you don't have to live out west to work in Sunshine, you could live in the city and not have too many problems as long as the job is not 9-5 when the commute would take forever cos of the traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boganbear Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Try Newport, Seddon and Yarraville which will be a be a bit nearer. Sunshine is a definite No No! I live in Williamstown and its lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
