Advantages of Living in the Suburbs
Surveys show suburbanites are generally happier, healthier, and more satisfied than those who live in the city. Here are the top reasons people prefer the slower and less hectic lifestyle;
Space, Space, Space
There is more space for everything. Bigger kitchens, more rooms, larger yards, grander homes! There’s even enough room for a pool, a garden, and space for your pets. You can never run out of parking space, and it’s free.
Minimal Pollution
Living in the outskirts of the city means doing away with the noise, smell, and air pollution that comes with urban communities. Fewer cars, more trees, and lower population to land density offer a healthier and environmentally friendly lifestyle.
Fresher Everything!
Aside from the abundance of fresh air, folks in the suburbs also enjoy fresher produce. Roadside stalls of fresh produce are common. Farms and markets are nearer, and they even have the option of growing their own food.
Family Friendly
Kids are freer and safer in the suburbs. Schools, churches, and your friendly day care centres are just a few steps away. Children can run around in the safer neighbourhoods, walk to schools, are more active, able to develop long-lasting friendships, and stay healthier because of fresher food and cleaner air. The parks and the outdoors offer endless options for family activities.
Closer Communities
Lifetime bonding and friendship are easier formed in suburban communities than it is in the city. Neighbours know each other, moms exchange pies and recipes, kids walk to school together, and entire families enjoy community activities with other families. Parents watch over everyone’s kids, and the entire neighbourhood is just a large extended family.
Peace and Quiet
It is easy to have peace and quiet in the suburbs. Homes in Brisbane suburbs often come with large yards and privacy. Less noise and distraction mean more time to yourself, less stress, improved health, and happier life.
Lower Cost of Living
It is cheaper to live in the suburbs than it is in cities. Fresh produce, restaurants, utilities, services, and entertainment are usually priced lower outside the city than it is within. Parking is commonly free, no traffic congestions that cost time and gas. Everything is also nearby, saving you a lot of time and money.
Healthier Lifestyle
The suburbs lifestyle encourages healthier and more active day to day living. Wide trails and walkways are perfect for walking or jogging. The refreshing parks, rivers, and natural grounds encourage people to spend more time outdoors and be more active.
Greener Options
Life in the suburbs offers a lot of green options to minimise your carbon footprints. Growing your own food, composting, communing with nature, choosing natural energy, and preparing your own food help a lot in reducing the use of manufactured goods.
Cheaper Homes
Homes in Brisbane suburbs are a lot cheaper compared to comparable homes in the city. Average per square metre home price within the city is $8,302, in the suburbs it is $5,768.
