It is a wonderful place to live Clair even though you are not intending to do so. No matter where one lives, there is usually something about weather conditions that can be criticised but the quality of life here, the relaxed and generally friendly attitude of folk more than makes up for any shortcomings in that regard.
There is the usual competitiveness found in many cities - here it is North of the River (NOR) and South of the River (SOR). and being SOR (Fremantle) I think SOR is by far the best place to live ]:)
Do not be put off by comments about traffic jams - if you have experienced them in the eastern states cities ours do not hold a candle to those. We have terribly selfish drivers here though many of whom have yet to learn the meaning of the word 'merge' let alone how to use a roundabout properly :^O
Free bus services both in Perth city and Fremantle make getting around cheap and easy for both visitors and residents alike.
Kings Park and the views over Perth Water, sunsets over the Indian Ocean from Leighton Beach or any of the others which fringe the suburban areas in the west, no poker machines except at the Casino and much, much more 🙂
I am also told that the time difference coupled with the physical distance from the eastern states can also afford great opportunities to get away from overbearing or interfering relatives and develop some independence 😉
I do not have that problem although I have heard it expressed on more than one occasion 😄
