    I think I Must be near Kylz. I'm sort of in the middle from Brisbane and gold coast. We love it but no waves at beach as straddie stops the waves.

    Don't know either place that well but I'm not sure I'd want to raise kids in goldie.... But QLD is awesome

    We live in the tweed coast and LOVE it!!! Yes there are lots of oldies .... We call it 'god's waiting room' haha cos they are all here waiting to die. Sorry that's awful LOL!!!

    We moved here from Brissy and have never looked back. Tweed coast & south gold coast are so much quieter than central/north GC!! prettier beaches too

    Currumbin & tally are highly sort after suburbs on the GC! Really beautiful parts of the coast.

    Southern gold coast....... We love it here! Everything's in walking distance, relaxed lifestyle and great parks for the kids

    Tally is lovely. We live over the hill from tally and go to the creek almost every day. I'm raising my kids on the GC and I was raised on the GC and I love it. Great climate and we're always outdoors and active. I don't see that as a bad place to raise kids. I definitely prefer the southern end though. Much less gaudiness and touristy stuff

    Shanti, would love to catch up! Will pm u when I'm not on my phone

    Lived in NSW most of my life. Broad very broad and probably wrong of me to say but DH and I just don't like where Sydney and NSW are headed. Qld is like NSW 20-30 years ago.

    I must admit to being harsh about the gc too. Sorry. I think that there are beautiful parts of everywhere. If you don't really know the area I'd really suggest you rent before you buy and as the girls have said go south gc mt tambourine is Devine
