Lots of talk from Gerry Harvey here about Dubbo,

Asked for his advice for struggling first-home buyers, Mr Harvey said technology could ease the burden by allowing employers to work remotely from more affordable regional centres.

“It’s pretty difficult if you’re out there trying to get into the housing market in capital cities at the moment, particularly Sydney and Melbourne, but if you don’t want that you can go to the other capitals, or Dubbo or somewhere where it’s not as expensive,” he said. “It just depends on what you do for a living.

On Amazon (same article)

If they have a warehousing area in Sydney, if someone buys a fridge and wants it in Dubbo, how do they get it there? They might have thought it’s 10 bucks cheaper on Amazon, but it’ll cost me 500 bucks more at this stage [to transport it].
