Flying south for Winter - where to live?

Dear All,

A pom's first post so please be gentle with me

I'll be relocating to Sydney in a few months and seek any advice on where to live...I'll be commuting into the CBD but would prefer to live out in a suburb where back yard astronomy isn't too challenging. Life is a balance

I currently live out on the outskirts of London with NLM of 4.0, 4.3 on a good night (2 of those in 3 years ), so anything equal to better than that preferable. I make occasional trips out to the country with guys here, and would be happy to do the same from my future home, but I'd prefer it not to be a lost cause for the brighter DSOs.

Any suggestions, ideas, recommendations of where - and just as importantly, where not - to start looking much appreciated!

Also, if anyone could set my expectations with regards to general observing conditions, frequency, etc in that part of the world that'd be a bonus!

Cheers,
Dunk
