Moved to Rocky just over 5 years ago , it's ok people are a little how can i say "clique" . Moved here at the right time property wise the region has seen good growth, all in all not a bad place stinking hot for 3 months rest of time superb. Found myself owning an Indian takeaway !! Don't ask.

Peeps

We have just found out that we may now be going to Mackay!!:unsure:

Do any of you know much about that area?

Still trying to sell the house but not expecting much this time of the year:thumbdown:

Did you sell curry in this country before you went? What visa did you emigrate on?

Dont know anything about Mackay apart from the fact its commuting distance from the bowen basin mines, overall Iv heard its meant to be quite nice proberbly nicer than rocky as its on the coast. Good luck with the house at least you wont have to worry about packing over the christmas.

Has anyone got young kids in primary schools in Rockhampton and what are the better areas to live in?

Hi there,
Rocky is basically a valley and you are better off at either end, South or North the former near the hospitals includes "the Range" and the latter "Frenchville". With regards to school suppose it depends on ages of the kids, send me a PM if you like, been here "Rocky" nearly 6 years........Different

Regards
Gary

Rocky is probably the worst place I have spent time in and I have travelled a lot. Why anybody would consider living there is mystifying
