Moving from Sydney to Canberra?

What was it like adjusting to life in Canberra after living in a much bigger city?
We are thinking of moving our family there as we can't afford to stay in inner Sydney if we want to buy a house. My dad lives in Canberra and raves about how wonderful it is for families, employment, etc. We have visited quite a lot and we both like it there.
Any insights into how Canberra compares to Sydney (or Melbourne)? What are the good things, what are the bad?
Such a big decision!

If you are the type who craves for the nightlife and all the hustle and bustle of lots of people every night, then Canberra is not for you.
If you are a homebody/nature loving person who likes markets and great food and doesn't mind travelling to Sydney/Melbourne for big events/nightlife on the weekend then give Canberra a try.
If you have a young family and is concerned about commuting, work/life balance and security/crime from a big city, then Canberra is definitely for you.
(by the way, house prices are actually pretty comparative to Syd/Mel, but you save more by not going out/no commute)

I don't live in Canberra, but my brother and SIL do. They live out in Tuggeranong, so still have a decent commute to the city. Their house wasn't cheap either; housing is pretty expensive in Canberra.
And childcare is a nightmare to find. An expensive nightmare!
That said, they love living there and have a great social network and community. Plenty of parks and things to do. Just make sure it's as cheap to live there as you hope it's going to be. Compared to Sydney, it may well be. Compared to Queensland (where I live) Canberra is frightfully expensive!!

Do it. You won't regret it. We've been here just over a year after a long stint o/s. I could never go back to Sydney permanently now. Canberra is sensational for families, and when I need my Sydney fix it's less than 3 hours up the road. Wouldn't change our decision to come here for anything!
Posted 25 November 2012 - 08:43 PM
Canberra is full of awesome people like me!
There's plenty to do, (I think) pretty good restaurants in Manuka and Dickson, plenty of shops, I wouldn't live anywhere else.

haha jayskette this describes us perfectly! "If you are a homebody/nature loving person who likes markets and great food and doesn't mind travelling to Sydney/Melbourne for big events/nightlife on the weekend then give Canberra a try.
If you have a young family and is concerned about commuting, work/life balance and security/crime from a big city, then Canberra is definitely for you."
I know it is expensive considering it is a small inland city, but it is still much cheaper than where we live in Sydney.
Roses99 where in QLD are you? Maybe we should check it out lol. We are just attracted to Canberra as my dad lives there with his family (remarried with some primary school aged kids) so he has told us how great it is for raising kids. Plus its driving distance to Sydney where our families live. And apparently unemployment is very low?

We moved here from Brisbane and love it- never moving back. Costs can be comparative, but you can get from one side of town to the other in 45 minutes. You also have the option of living rurally, like us, and still being only 25 minutes from the city. We are also close to both the beach and the snow, best of both worlds!

when you say rural what do you mean - on a property or in a smaller town close by?
Posted 25 November 2012 - 09:49 PM
I was there pre kids (from Sydney) and love it. I think it would be even better with kids. There's a better work life balance in the culture thanks to the high level of government stuff, and unless you work out at Brindabella, traffic jams are pretty non existant (some Canberrans disagree, but what they call a traffic jam is very different from what Sydney-ites call a traffic jam!).
If not for the extended family here, we'd have stayed there. But the extreme heat and cold does kind of suck.

We are on 22 acres, halfway between Queanbeyan and Bungendore. Bungendore is a small town, Queanbeyan is a small NSW city just outside of Canberra. Smaller rural properties are available though if 22 acres is too big for you
I agree with pretty much everyone else has said, especially in regards to raising kids here. We also get the opportunity to go to heaps of agricultural shows as Canberra is close to so many country towns
Posted 26 November 2012 - 06:48 AM
I moved from Sydney to Canberra 3 years ago because I was going mental in Sydney with the traffic and I knew I'd never afford a place in Sydney.
DF is a mechanic and there is plenty of work for him. Work depends on what you do really!
We love living here, but we are looking to move rurally. But that has more to do with being with family and friends. We do enjoy living in Canberra.
I love that after being used to Sydney, everywhere in Canberra is close. The commute and traffic is nothing compared to Sydney.
House prices are lower comparatively. You can buy a house for 400k, not many, but they are out there. If you can spend up to 600k then there are lots of options. But those cheaper houses are still only 20/30 min to the city.
There are so many activities for kids and it is a city designed for an outdoor lifestyle (with bike paths everywhere!) There are parks for kids everywhere! When we have DSDs we go around to different parks and check them out
I find the heat not too bad after Sydney, because it seems a much dryer heat to me. I thought the cold would kill me, but then Canberra houses and shopping centres and workplaces are built for the cold! I actually found myself warmer at work in Canberra than in Syd where we had no heating!
I definitely find it a slower more enjoyable pace
Good luck with your decision
Posted 26 November 2012 - 12:09 PM
I moved from Sydney to Canberra 10 years ago & have NEVER regretted it!
I do love Sydney, but I love to go back & visit, not live!
Yes Canberra housing prices can be extensive, but if you say that you can't afford 'Inner Sydney' I am guessing you are talking about houses in the $mill or very close to it mark? if so, then Canberra is cheaper for a similar distance from the city.. if you know what I mean?
Like, my mum lives about 9kms out of the Sydney CBD & medium house prices there are $1.2mill however in Canberra 9km out can get you a new house for under $600k.
other posts have summed the pro's of living here up really well.
I hope you make a decision that is best for you & the family.
Posted 26 November 2012 - 02:08 PM
Thanks so much for the replies. I hadn't thought about living on a property outside of the city but that idea actually appeals to me a lot! I'm going to have to broaden my real estate search.
We live in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, a 2BR apartment in our block just sold for $700K (no view or anything) and even 2 BR semis around here are over $1mil. It is ridiculous how much housing costs here. I grew up here and I love living here but even rent is getting too expensive and we'll never get our own house with backyard if we stay here.
Canberra sounds very appealing. I think the cold of winter should be ok so long as we have central heating in our home.
I was a little worried about the social side of things, DH and I are both friendly people but fairly quiet (more him than me) so I do hope we can break into some social circles. I was hoping that if we moved there before my DD started kindy then I would meet all the other kindy mums and go from there. I've heard you make lots more friends when you have kids.
I love the idea of getting into all the outdoor activities like biking and getting the kids into them as well when they are old enough.
I have been looking in south Canberra like Woden Valley and Weston Creek because that is near my dad but it seems pretty expensive, at least $500K for a 3BR house. Any other suburb suggestions?
Posted 26 November 2012 - 04:15 PM
Re suburbs I grew up where you are looking but moved north - belconnen for affordability reasons. Although nothings very far I would say there is actually more for kids here than woden. Depending where you go you can also be closer to the city. Also not sure if you are aware but we have free preschool (15hrs/ week) the year before kindy and there are lots of playgroups where you could meet potential friends.
Posted 26 November 2012 - 06:28 PM
Yes I was thinking about the free preschool actually, I remember my dad's wife telling me about it. Might have to move there the year before she starts school! She is 2.5 now so we still have a couple of years to play with.
Will check out Belconnen area, thanks
Posted 26 November 2012 - 07:32 PM
If you are seriously looking at coming to Canberra, I would suggest that you get jobs before you move as that will shape where you are likely to live as not all Public Service (if that is what you are looking for) jobs are in the city. Also depending on where work is you can live 5/10 mins away easily, otherwise you may be looking at up to 40-50 mins (during peak hour and due to road work) if you end up living on the other side of town to work.
Although from Weston Creek it wouldn't be 40 minutes to anywhere in Canberra.
You could look at Kambah, it is North Tuggeranong and not too far from Weston Creek. Northside I would suggest somewhere like Cook or Aranda but possibly just as expensive.
Posted 26 November 2012 - 07:52 PM
thanks mumin07, that is a very good point! We (or at least DH) will definitely need a job lined up before moving anywhere.
Will check out those suburbs, thanks.
Posted 26 November 2012 - 08:10 PM
Southside is the best - it smells better
I'm in Kambah, and it's a lovely suburb, but the whole city is pretty lovely.
I don't have much to add, because I've lived here my whole life so don't have any city-moving experience.
Like others have said, it's only a maximum of 45-50 minutes to the city from anywhere. Public transport is pretty good if you need it.
And I echo Jenflea that Canberra is full of cool people

Yep, I'm in Weetangera, next to Cook and Aranda. Its next to major arterial roads making it easy to get anywhere, about 10 minutes to civic (20-30 minutes in peak/roadwork traffic ). A 6 bedroom house on a large block near me just sold for $750k but I would think that was at the top end of the scale. I think Gunghalin has a lot of new but cheaper houses, and with the major roads it doesn't take too long to get anywhere.
There is more to do than people generally make out, you just have to keep your eyes peeled.

Posted 26 November 2012 - 08:30 PM
Tuggeranong IS the best!
there is a bit of a north v South thing here too lol.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 05:57 PM
if you've not already looked at it, Allhomes.com.au is a good realestate site. Tells you median suburb prices, where schools are etc.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 06:56 PM
I'll vouch for Weetangera, it's a fantastic suburb. We lived southside for ages (rented in Hughes & Kambah, bought in Conder), DH grew up southside (Torrens) but we bought in Cook in 2001 then Weetangera in 2010. There's lots of lovely places all over Canberra, I hope you find one you love
Take Jenflea's suggestion & have a look at allhomes, it's a great resource.
Posted 27 November 2012 - 09:50 PM
Sorry to butt in, but you have all made me feel very at peace about our decision - we are moving early next year (was meant to be in January, but this surprise pregnancy now means I don't start my job until July).
PS - we are going Northside.

Playing card 'expert' Brian Berg has made a model of the Beijing Olympic Village out of playing cards. He must really have some patience...
It took him 20 days and 140,000 cards to construct this model of the Olympic Village. You have to admire the level of geek required to take this project on, and the motivation to do it in less than 20 days in front on an audience and everything.
Implications - Many wouldn't possess the patience (or the stillness) to create this delicate and monstrous model. It will really be a shame when it has to be disassembled, but I guess that's just in the cards.

It seems that you can't blink without another startup accelerator launching in Europe these days. While most of them follow the same model of taking a small amount of equity in return for a small injection of cash and an intensive coaching program, France's Le Camping is a little different.
Created by a non-profit organization, the Paris-based scheme doesn't take shares in the startups it mentors. As such, it could be perhaps thought of as a 'school for startups'. Another difference, at least in the French scene, is that all startups must speak English, helping prepare them for the international market.
F**k it, we'll do it live!
Our biggest ever edition of TNW Conference is fast approaching! Join 10,000 tech leaders this May in Amsterdam.
Le Camping is now in its second run of startups, and it brought the teams to LeWeb, adding an eye-catching jungle theme to its room. We caught up with Program Manager, Alice Zagury to find out more about this very different accelerator.

About this design:
I always loved the image of the Snow Queen--someone who thrived on cold. There are a few snow women in mythology,too. The necklace is right for them all.
Components:Rock crystal, frosted/crackled quartz,opalite glass diamonds, crystal rondelles and bicones, seed beads, gold-plated clasp
Read the comments (or add your own)
Laud, I can just see her wearing this! Love the 'icicles' – another beautiful design. The seed beeds, bicones and rondelles add a nice touch of color. Your necklaces are always so nice!Is this one about 22 inches long?
ice ice baby!stunning
Thanks! You nailed it, Lois. Just measured, and it's 22″.
I love it.
Oh wow! Couldn't you just see some celebrity wearing this on the red carpet?? It could be cool, casual too! Into faves it goes!
Lovely, lovely icicles! I would have put silver with this but I LOVE the gold!! Who knew?? You have such a great eye for this, Laud! You do combinations the rest of us don't even dream of.
Becky, I thought silver made an icy pick too chilly, and wouldn't a queen expect gold? Didn't want too much gold, so the crystals are all Picasso finish except for the tiny light topaz bicones. I did wonder if I should use pearls?
I think this is PERFECT!!!
I meant, if I was beginning a design with the quartz, gold wouldn't even have crossed my mind but it works perfectly here. That is how your eye for color works. I don't have that skill.
Sure you do. You'd have seen that the design was lacked punch. Question: Do you think I should replace the central crystals with 1) the same gold beads as in other places, or 2) very small gold ones so the icicles hang together tighter? I just don't know.
I like how the spikes are splayed by the crystals. I think it looks good as is but if you want to try gold, use the bigger ones so you get the feeling of spikes. The Queen did have a frozen heart.
You're right: spikes it is. I was thinking the icicles might look more icy if they were closer, but spikes have drama. Good call.
I made a bracelet that would go perfect with this…sold it to a lady in Australia. Really a lovely piece.
Nooooo! Don't replace anything please! The spikes look awesome spaced as they are, more like icicles found in nature. The crystals between the spikes give a sense of sunlight on the ice, gold beads wouldn't have that impact. Just my opinion of course, but this is a stunner as is!
Fabulously designed!
Amazing piece!!!! Love it!
Does anyone think this needs earrings? Bracelet?
Definitely fit for a Queen
I love white crystal. Stunning piece.
Oooh! I tried something similar — lots of icy stones — a couple of years back, but it ended up all blah, so I took it apart and decided it wasn't doable. This is really good! I've got a feeling you would get trouble with how it falls if you put the sticks together, they would stick to each other and get all stiff and cranky, sort of? Earrings, definitely! Straight, simple stick-shape?
Yes, on the earrings and bracelet. I agree with Monica on keeping the earrings straight and simple. Mirror the icicles.
Would love to see a bracelet. I picture a cuff style, or even a multi-strand with an equally icy look to it!
PS I agree with Gail. Don't change a thing!
Laud, this is FABULOUS! I must say I saw the picture and wasn't looking at the name and as soon as I saw the picture I was like, "Wow this reminds me of the Snow Queen in the Narnia book." This is absolutely perfect, PERFECT! WOW…I am at a loss for words! It is amazing!
You took the thoughts right out of my head Jess!!
Fabulous icy coolness Laud! Nothing needs to be changed. And yes earrings would look lovely, nice icicles hanging from your ears.
Wowzers! A very "Cool" design! Love it!
Yes! What Jess said… this is SO Narnia.
I like the little bit of gold within the silver and white. Good contrast. It's both BOLD and subtle.
As always Laud… this has YOU written all over it!!!
Thanks, ladies! You're the best.
Beautifully done, Laud! The Snow queen would look great in this!
Have to agree with everyone. Gorgous!
Gorgeous! The touch of gold does bring it to life. Reminds me of late-afternoon golden sunlight on snow & ice…
Definitely make earrings.
Last year (or the year before?) I bought some tiny white coral branchlets, and a bunch of white/moonstone/clear tiny beads, intending to make a Snow Queen piece… maybe this will kick me into action…
Beautiful – glamorous – unique!
Awesome design! I love quartz, what a beauty!
Beautiful, as always
Thanks, everyone!

Hahnville wrestler wins state championship at USA tournament
2 other Hahnville wrestlers finish in top 3
June 27, 2013 at 10:54 am | Mobile Reader | Print
Nicholas Lirette, wrestling in the 113-pound weight class, won the state championship in the freestyle and finished as runner-up in Greco Roman. Lirette wrestles with River Parish Wrestling Academy as well as Hahnville High School.
The tournament featured two different styles of wrestling, Greco Roman and freestyle. Lirette not only finished first in freestyle, but he was the state runner-up in Greco Roman.
Two of Lirettes teammates also placed in the event. Chris Jones, of Hahnville High, finished in third place in freestyle while Joel Ramirez, also of Hahnville, finished third in Greco Roman.
USA Wrestling is the same organization that puts on Olympic wrestling and River Parish Wrestling Academy coach Dave Menendez said Lirette has a bright future.
"Nick did real well and he is probably the best wrestler on our team and getting a state championship showed how good he is," Menendez said. "He started for Hahnville last year as a freshman and he might get the opportunity to wrestle in college one day."
Lirette is currently in Pennsylvania attending an intensive two-week camp put on by J Robinson, who is the head coach of the University of Minnesota wrestling team.
Jones is also attending the camp after his third-place finish in freestyle.
"Chris is another good, young wrestler and he is a very good athlete," Menendez said. "I thought he could have done better because he has performed better during the season, but I was proud of him for getting third."
Ramirez, who finished third in the Junior Division in Greco Roman, had one of his best performances of the year at the state tournament.
"Joel has been working very hard and I was happy for him," Menendez said. "He is a guy who is wrestling in a bigger weight class and he had to overcome wrestling a better athlete."
Though River Parish Wrestling Academy had three wrestlers place at the event, Menendez said his guys have looked much better throughout the season than they did last week.
"For the whole weekend, I wasnt overly happy with our performance because we usually place a lot better. We usually have four guys place," he said.
Chase Menendez, who wrestles at Destrehan, placed fourth in Greco Roman and just missed getting on the podium.
River Parish Wrestling Academy was started to increase the number of wrestlers in the area. Menendez says athletes who may be too small for football or other sports can wrestle against people their own size and prove their talent on the floor.
"Wrestling goes by weight and starts off at 88 pounds and goes to 285 pounds," he said. "These guys are getting the chance to prove themselves against people that are their same size."
River Parish Wrestling teaches wrestlers as young as 6 to age 18 and is hoping to get wrestling programs started at the St. Charles Parish middle schools.

For example, when dealing with a student that is really behind schedule, I recommend that they pick out the most important projects with the most weight and do those first.

Maui on a Saturday night probably has its lively spots but Wailea - a carefully planned resort filled with swanky hotels and happy honeymooners - isn't one of them.
I head to the neighbouring town of Kihei in search of food and fun. In fact, I find both in the same shopping centre.
As I devour some fish tacos at a table outside Coconut's Fish Cafe, plenty of action is unfolding a few storefronts along at a bar called Diamonds.
A pride of Harley-Davidsons is propped outside. Their owners aren't hard to discern: leather and denim, vests and bandanas spill onto the footpath. These guys and gals don't know it yet but they're about to meet me.
Of course, I'm nervous about doing this - I wouldn't try this back home.
But being in a strange place can make you do strange things.
I sidle inside the bar: a band's playing, which makes me feel less conspicuous. Bikers are dancing and giving each other high-fives, others are playing pool.
I stand at a high table holding a few drinks and their owners eventually turn up, their vests all featuring the same distinctive logo: Kanaka Hekili. Hello, conversation starter.
A vest parks itself next to me - its owner a marine from Oahu. His club meets at this bar on the same holiday weekend every year. Joining the club, it turns out, isn't exactly easy.
After hanging around meetings for maybe six months, a sponsor transforms you into a prospect, he tells me.
What does that mean? "Prospect, bring me a coffee. Prospect, my bike's broken - come help me fix it," he says.
Maybe another six months go by before the prospect graduates from wearing a plain black vest to one embroidered with a masked and muscled figure holding a thunderbolt.
Kanaka Hekili translates as "Hawaiian Thunder". "But there's no thunder in Hawaii - only the sound of our bikes," he says. Ah, it's poetry.
Some guys have regular names stitched onto their vests; others have nicknames such as Hambone, Ransom and Turbo. Owning a Harley, however, isn't a prerequisite for membership.
"You just have to have a cruiser," one says.
With many club members being military or ex-military, the manners are exquisite. Anyone who swings by is introduced - the brotherhood's camaraderie is enviable.
Before long, though, they start to disperse. Someone's girlfriend needs to be fetched from the airport early. The rest kick their cruisers into life - they're heading to another bar down the street and want me to join them.
Springsteen's Born to Run pops into my head: could I wrap my legs around those velvet rims and strap my hands across those engines?
Not tonight, it turns out. It's time for this non-biker chick to buckle up safely, give her four wheels a rev and point them towards home.

A physical test for measuring age shows wide differences between the rates of aging among different population groups, according to new research by demographers at the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis.
A strong handshake can say a lot about a person—it can indicate power, confidence, health, or aggression. Now scientists say that the strength of a person's grasp may also be one of the most useful ways to measure people's true age.
In a new study published today in the journal PLOS ONE, IIASA researchers Serguei Scherbov and Warren Sanderson (also at Stony Brook University) show that hand grip corresponds to other markers of aging such as people's future mortality, disability, cognitive decline, and ability to recover from hospital stays.
For their new research, Sanderson and Scherbov reviewed findings from over 50 published studies that focus on people of all ages around the world. Since the measure is already commonly used, data are readily available. "Hand-grip strength is easily measured and data on hand-grip strength now can be found in many of the most important surveys on aging worldwide," says Sanderson.
The study also demonstrates how such a test could be used as a measure for aging to compare different population groups. The study used data from one such survey, the United States Health and Retirement Survey (HRS), to show how this could be done.
Scherbov says, "We found that based on this survey, a 65-year-old white women who had not completed secondary education has the same handgrip strength as a 69-year-old white women who had completed secondary education. This suggests that according to a handgrip strength characteristic their ages are equivalent and 65 year-old women ages 4 years faster due to lower education attainment."
In a growing body of research funded in part by a new grant from the European Research Council (ERC), Scherbov and Sanderson have begun to define new measures of aging based on people's characteristics, such as their longevity, health, disability status and other important demographic factors.
Previous research by Sanderson and Scherbov has shown that measuring age simply by the number of years people have lived does not measure variations in the aging process correctly. Using new characteristic-based approaches such as the one in this paper, using a physical test like hand-grip, the researchers can identify differences in the aging process between population groups that may not otherwise become apparent.
Scherbov says, "Our goal is to measure how fast different groups in a society age. If some group is getting older faster than another, we can ask why that might be and see whether there are any policies that could help the faster aging group."

Permanent magnets are very important for technologies of the future like electromobility and renewable energy, and rare earth elements (REE) are necessary for their manufacture. The Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials IWM in Freiburg, Germany, has now succeeded in identifying promising approaches and materials for new permanent magnets through use of an in-house simulation process based on high-throughput screening (HTS). The team was able to improve magnetic properties this way and at the same time replaced REE with elements that are less expensive and readily available. The results were published in the online technical journal "Scientific Reports".
The starting point for IWM researchers Wolfgang Körner, Georg Krugel, and Christian Elsässer was a neodymium-iron-nitrogen compound based on a type of...
In the Beyond EUV project, the Fraunhofer Institutes for Laser Technology ILT in Aachen and for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering IOF in Jena are developing key technologies for the manufacture of a new generation of microchips using EUV radiation at a wavelength of 6.7 nm. The resulting structures are barely thicker than single atoms, and they make it possible to produce extremely integrated circuits for such items as wearables or mind-controlled prosthetic limbs.
In 1965 Gordon Moore formulated the law that came to be named after him, which states that the complexity of integrated circuits doubles every one to two...

Depot Maintenance:
Future Year Estimates of Public and Private Workloads Are Likely to Change
NSIAD-00-69: Published: Mar 1, 2000. Publicly Released: Mar 1, 2000.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-8412
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Defense's annual reports on depot maintenance, focusing on how military departments or defense agencies: (1) used funds appropriated annually for depot-level repair and maintenance done by contractor personnel; and (2) reported on estimated funds to be used for performing depot maintenance by public and private sector personnel for fiscal years 1999-2005.
GAO noted that: (1) the estimated funding to be used for depot maintenance work performed by the private sector increases annually during fiscal years 1999-2005; (2) the Army's and the Navy's estimates showed a slow increase in private sector maintenance work over this period, but the estimated private sector share remained below 50 percent; (3) the Air Force did not report on its depot maintenance estimates for the period; (4) preliminary data showed the Air Force's expenditures for depot maintenance workloads could exceed the 50-percent threshold between 2000 and 2003 unless actions are taken that would place additional work in the public sector; (5) Air Force officials have recognized that they may not be able to manage the workload within the statutory limit during fiscal year (FY) 2000; (6) the Air Force notified the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President of the Senate that, as required by statute, the Secretary of the Air Force has approved a waiver of the 50-percent ceiling for FY 2000; (7) the reported data provides a rough estimate of future workload allocation, but it also has several limitations that affect its usefulness as a predictor of actual workload allocations; (8) portions of the data contained errors and inconsistencies; (9) some of the errors and inconsistencies may be resolved with the Department's report on actual data for FY 1999; (10) estimated data may vary significantly from actual experience because the data are developed from budget estimates and future years' defense requirements change over time; (11) Air Force actual depot maintenance workload funding allocations for 1999 were not available, however, other records indicated the potential for variance between planned and actual funding; (12) pilot programs to reengineer weapon system support activities are under way in each of the services and are shifting responsibility for more depot maintenance to the private sector; and (13) the data estimates do not yet fully reflect the future consequences of these actions.
