Hi

Stay clear of the south/west. Howick and Bucklands beach in the south/east are OK. Northshore is much better, there is some work on the shore but it depends what you do, most people travel into the city. The journey is OK, no trains but a fairly good bus link from some places, highway 1 is busy during the rush hour bit it's not the m25.

We have been staying in Albany for 4 months and it is OK, seems very safe and has some good shops. The schools are very good and catchment areas work like the UK.

Gary
