Yes it is spectacular.
But I prefer living where every industrial supply is available... if I want a custom v-belt or a custom machined part, or whatnot, I like to have so much industry nearby that it's easy to get anything made. Queenstown is all tourism, no industrial base, and to get to an industrial base would be a very long drive.
This is also why I would prefer Blenheim to Nelson, even though Nelson is "nicer".
My original destination was Blenheim - a winery or orchard, or both. But I just followed the path of least resistance to where I'm currently at.
