Australia

Hi,

Me, along with my family are planning to spend 5 nights in Sydney. Wondering if anybody could suggest a decent neighborhood in Sydney. I came across quite a few, Woolloomooloo, Potts Point, Chippendale, Wentworth, Chinatown, Ultimo, Manly, Kings Cross, etc.,
I was warned that some of these neighborhoods (such as Kings Cross, etc.,) are not safe, and some are prohibitively expensive...
Could anybody kindly suggest some neighborhoods that are safe, and are close to enough attractions/or well connected by public transport to most of enough attractions at Sydney?

Or atleast is there a website where I can get such information? websites (such as www.city-data.com) that have details for other places in Australia as well?

Thanks a lot in advance!
-BJ

Can you share a penny of your thoughts? These are the comments from my friends and acquaintances. Whenever I mentioned Australia (in which I am relocating soon), it's either its a RACIST country and there are a lot of GAYS.
