    I would say that living costs are generally slightly lower than the average for the south of England. House prices, for example, are lower than somewhere like Southampton (because of the hassle of a ferry ride) However, some things like petrol, for example, can be more expensive (for the same reason!!) In my experience, the commute can be ok, but will take time unless you live near Cowes or Ryde and work centrally in Portsmouth or Soton. How would you define "good" !!?
