Where are the nicer areas/suburbs to live in Christchurch NZ? |
Travel Info Keen to know the nicer areas/suburbs in Christchurch. Looking to rent there and want to live in a nice neighbourhood. Thanks in advance for any help! Travel Tips Affluent nice = Fendalton, Cashmere, Merivale, Ilam, Mt Pleasant, Northwood, Travisland, Nunweek Park. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;... Look at my answer to this question, which asked about bad suburbs for some more info. Source(s): Live there Other Travel Tips Fendalton Is very flash and up market, It Is also quite expensive. Merivale Is quite similar to Fendalton. If you are looking for somewhere that's laid back, non snobbish and great for kids then North beach Is a great place as the beach and Forest are right at your door step. Parklands Is also very nice. Cashmere, Fendalton, parts of Riccarton. Sumners pretty nice too. Fendalton and Merivale are both flash areas and close to the city, malls and most of the private schools. North Shore is a nice suburb, 15 minutes from the city centre, close to the beach/forest/golf course. Nice neighbourhood. Sumner/Redcliffs are nice, close to the beach, a bit far from the city though and the traffic is terrible. It really depends on your budget. I'm in Burnside, which is about 5 mins to airport and countryside, near several malls, with the usual array of shops and supermarkets and about a 25min drive in peak hour to the CBD. It could be expensive to rent here because the High School has an excellent reputation. It is also very handy to University of Canterbury and College of Education. Cashmere!! It's really nice! My cousins live there. The houses are all new, worth millions and everyone is snobby and upthemselves! |
