Hmm....we're looking at a few options ourselves. I've recently retired but my wife still wants to continue her nursing career a few more years. We're in WA.....northern Perth suburbs. Personally I'd like us to move to northern Japan....but visas are a very difficult issue - it just looks too hard. We have a large block in the Philippines which has almost tripled in value last few years with Ayala building a nearby mega-shopping centre, a new airport a couple k's away, an IT/phone centre complex a couple hundred metres down the road...it's all happening..(Rose Hancocks relatives are even living near us - LOL - nice houses too)....But I'm losing interest there.....Crime, drugs, inflation, etc....Don't need the aggravation, so likely will sell out soon.
I then started looking at the WA wheatbelt, Merridin area etc....House prices about a third of Perth...with bigger blocks. Some good towns in the area, Bruce Rock etc.... Bit hotter, and drier weather....But the wife still can work part or full-time if she wants....And blocks large enough for me to indulge in my usual pastimes of max veggie growing....Might even jump into aquaculture with solar power and a bit of clever nutritional ideas. Lot to be said for country living.....my family did when I was a kid. Loved it then.....no reason not to love it now....
If you're inclined, go for it. Leave the city hassles, crime, and BS behind....
