Where is the best place to live in Australia?
At least around an area where there is lots of scenery. I am planning on moving there for the scenery and so I can get my photography work into motion. But it can't be totally romoted from society where you have to drive more than 3 hours just to see one house.

Northern Queensland, you've got the beauty of the rainforests, waterfalls, reefs, mountains, beaches all close at hand to Cairns, Townsville, etc. Within 2 hours of Brisbane you also have rainforests, beautiful beaches, islands, mountains, Moreton Bay, lots of varying landscapes. Lots of NSW is really beautiful, you won't be far from something spectacular. I'm not familiar with the other states but Tasmania certainly seems very photogenic in a smaller area. Depends on what sort of scenery you like to photograph - I think you'd be hard pressed to find a really bad area!!

Only the real outback is so remote tthat houses are that far apart. While there's still heaps of space in the coastal areas, they're comparatively well settled and close to society. As to the best place to live, it depends on what type of scenery you prefer. Tropical rainforest, temperate rainforest, farms, plantations, mountains, valleys, magnificent gorges, wetlands, tropical islands, sheltered coves, endless miles of beach, rivers, cities...We have everything. Take your pick.

Victoria is the best for ease of ability to get to places quickly. Drive from the heart of Melbourne for one hour any direction and you have totally different scenery. Go east for 1 and half hours and you can be thinking you are in France with the wineries (Yarra Valley..look it up!) Go North and you are in Gold mining country...go west, Volcanic area....go south..Ok you will drown...it's a Bay! I have traveled to many places and Victoria Australia has the most diverse towns, scenery and history you will find anywhere!

Anywhere in Australia has diverse scenery, so I guess you have to ask yourself what kind of weather you like. Do you like it hot all year round (head north). Warm/ humid summer and cooler, dry winter (Sydney). Hot summer, cool to cold winter (Adelaide). One day extremely hot to the next day extremely cold in summer and cold most of the time in winter (4 seasons in one day - Melbourne). Mild to hot year round (Perth). Cold winters and mild to hot summers (Hobart). Keep in mind that most of Australia is in severe drought. Sydney is the most populated city, followed by Melbourne(around 3.8 million last I heard). So there are plenty of non-remote areas!

North Queensland - Cairns. http://www.cairns.com.au We have so many options within an hour each way you drive, rainforest, the Tablelands, the outback, the Great Barrier Reef, the BEST beaches - the list goes on ! Take a look at http://www.peterlik.com.au - very well known photographer in Australia. In fact he's just closed his gallery's down in Cairns and Port Douglas to concentrate more on the overseas market.
