Being born and bred in Launceston I may be a bit biased, but I highly recommend it as a place of residence. Like anywhere, Tassie has its good and bad points, but so does everywhere.



During my former career I travelled Australia extensively, and when ill health forced my retirement, I returned to Launceston (but of course it feels like home to me).


One bonus I really like about Tasmania is you can pretty much get from anywhere to anywhere else and back home in a day, and experience pretty much any form of natural beauty whilst doing it, and as has been said, only about an hour plane ride to Melbourne.
