Having grown up around small country towns, I appreciate seeing that so many of them are trying to do their own thing and stand out in a bleak landscape. However, I would never opt to live in one again.

I am so over small country towns
if not for the gold rush money they would be very ordinary

I like exploring regional Victoria and doing the short stays. It feels like a nice little holiday in my own backyard.

I think Iām not going far enough, these places have a suburban feel.
So maybe I should go further.

What sort of vibe are you looking for? Lots of nice little towns around to visit.

Same price pressures in most country towns as everywhere else. Population growth, construction costs skyrocketing, holiday homes and short term accomodation growth. Only the really isolated places are still cheap.
