how far/ how long would you be willing to travel on a daily basis? just wondering if your job is in the city itself as it greatly depends what direction your travelling in the evening, traffic going out of town in the evenings is chronic. I work outside the city and live in the middle of it so its a lot quicker getting to and from work than a lot of other people..
Gort and other towns outside the city would have cheaper property than in town.. you wouldn't get much in or around the city for e250k I think, maybe an apartment?
