What do I need to know before moving to Noosa Heads?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Noosa Heads, they said...

"Noosa Heads is a popular tourist destination in Australia, known for its beautiful beaches, national parks, and vibrant dining scene. Before moving to Noosa Heads, expats should be aware that the cost of living can be quite high, especially when it comes to housing. The town is located in Queensland, so the climate is subtropical with warm temperatures year-round and a rainy season from December to March. English is the primary language spoken in Noosa Heads, but due to its popularity with tourists, it's not uncommon to hear other languages as well. The town has a relaxed, laid-back vibe, and outdoor activities like surfing, hiking, and boating are popular pastimes. Healthcare in Australia is of a high standard, and expats will have access to both public and private healthcare options. It's important to note that while public healthcare is subsidized by the government, private healthcare can offer shorter wait times for non-emergency procedures. The education system in Australia is also highly regarded, and Noosa Heads has a number of quality schools to choose from. However, it's worth noting that public schools often give priority to students living in their catchment area, so this may influence where you choose to live. Public transportation in Noosa Heads is reliable, but many residents choose to drive as the town is spread out and some areas are not easily accessible by bus. If you plan on driving, you'll need to get an Australian driver's license. Finally, while Noosa Heads is generally a safe place to live, like any tourist destination, it can have issues with petty crime, so it's important to take standard precautions to protect your belongings," wrote a member who made the move to Noosa Heads, Australia.
