What suburbs are cheap in rent in Geelong?

As i am a single mum, with 4 girls all at primary school, need the lot as i can not afford to live in Melbourne any longer.

Perhaps try Norlane West, Bell Park, Bell Post Hill, & Newcomb. They are all reasonably close to Geelong CBD while still being affordable. Maybe Hamlyn Heights & Herne Hill. There are cheaper suburbs (Corio, Norlane) but they attract a lot of undesirables and a lot of trouble.
Sections of Grovedale may also be attractive. Plenty of Primary Schools in the area, as well as shops and public transport.

By the way, Whittington is not the best choice either. Might be a good idea to check the bus routes for the suburbs you are interested in. As running a car is getting dearer, who knows if you'll be attending training courses or looking for work for a while and that all costs money. Let us know how you get on and send any more questions.

Eddie..though your answer is two years old. If you or anyone could advise..Is corio & norlane still bad. How bad? Cant be the whole area though..which streets are okay & does it get so cold in winter that heating is required, since I notice many if not all homes in real estate sales ads have heaters and large windows also, presumably to grab as much sunlight thus heat as possible during the day.
