The Various Neighborhoods and Suburbs of Sydney, Australia

For those wanting to travel or perhaps move to the city of Sydney, Australia, there are many aspects to consider, one being where to find accommodation Sydney, Australia has four distinct suburbs surrounding the city, each with their own personalities and character.  The four districts are categorized simply as Sydney North, South, East and West.  For those with extra money to spend on vacation, or those moving to the city with well paying jobs, the Northern suburbs would be the place to investigate.  Many people who immigrate to the city from the United Kingdom prefer to live in this area.

In the Southern suburbs, the population is a bit more varied and eclectic.  Many different people and ethnic cultures live within the South, in areas such as Bankstown and Punchbowl.  The rent is less expensive, as well as the property values, and it is a bit more affordable.  Many of those that are native born Australians also live within the South suburbs, and the backgrounds, religious and cultural are diverse.

The Western suburbs offer quick access to the trains and the highways into the city, and provide more reasonable rates than those found in the downtown center.  This area is also substantially more affordable than the suburbs to the North.  The Eastern suburbs however, are extremely expensive.  Located in this area are many trendy clubs and a plethora of restaurants.  This is a fashionable site, in which many festivals take place, such as the Gay Mardi Gras each year.  Bondi Beach, a favorite amongst tourists and surfers, is located in the Eastern suburbs, and the views are incredible.

And of course there is the center of town, which is inhabited by many students attending the universities.  The entire greater Sydney area is incredibly diverse, ethnically, racially and culturally.  Generally, many of those moving from South East Asia live in the suburb of Eastwood, while those of Muslim descent live in the Auburn or Lakemba areas.  Lakemba is the location of the largest mosque in the the city.  Most of those moving from either the United States or Western Europe have tended to settle in either the Eastern suburbs or along the North Shore.  In any case, each area offers something unique to those traveling the city, or to those considering a move.
