Mondsee really seems like it would be a great place to live. After all, it's fairly close to Salzburg so you won't feel to isolated from a decent size city. It's very laid back and has a beautiful physical setting on the northwest edge of the Mondsee (the lake). It gets its share of tourists, but not as many as some of the other towns in the Salkammergut (the region around the glacier-carved lakes in this area). If you're into watersports, it has its share and if you're into mountain sports or hiking, both are within a short distance.
