Try Quaker's Hill, pretty quite neighborhood. Hills area ang medyo okay, rent minimum per week is around $350. Mga 45-60 mins to CBD depending on the location and if mag-bus pa kayo, syempre mas matagal.

@icebreaker... more kwentos... goodluck sa paglipat mo. parang Pinoy Adventure lang. sana tinanong mo na lang paano mag-claim nung benefit na yun. pang-FYI lang kamo. hehe
@johnandjosh, dito sa middle east, yung malalaking banks may ganyang ding mga programs. mas malaki rin ang interest ng online accounts. kadalasan nga, mas malaki ang interest rate ng online accounts vs time deposits.
one advice na lang siguro ay choose rin ang bank na maganda ang security features.
