Out of interest - why Mackay in particular?

Re: mackay
We have flights booked for the 31st Oct. Will arrive 3rd or 4th Nov. Got some good reports. - Try a search of recent threads.
Both North Mackay School and Whitsunday Anglican have ben recommended.
Why Mackay? -big enough to offer what we need, small enough not to be City life, good climate, reasonable house prices, the Reef. Good a start as anywhere, we can always move.

From what I have researched etc does not seem like a run down sugar town!
Would appreciate if you let me know what you think once you arrive there...
Good Luck
