Moving to Western Australia

This is a big move, Western Australia is a big state of Australia consisting of many diverse geographical areas.

Coming from overseas you will never know what you are going to get until you go. You can count on a unique part of the world that can offer you cosmopolitan lifestyles to the remotest of remote living. From sweeping desert to grape growing and sweeping green pasture.

Currently the mineral and mining boom is offering a great deal of employment and lifestyle choices for many from Australia and overseas. Most of these mining jobs will in fact be located in remote areas of western Australia. For many families life will be what you make of it in these mining communities. Expect a friendly bunch and community type of living is to the forefront . For many whom have tried this before reflect on in later years as a great time in their lives.

Western Australia from the top to the bottom is unique. Moving from east to west in Australia felt like in many ways like moving to another country but one that on the surface is no different from the one you have just come from. I will try to explain. In Western Australia the state is remote and for many years have only themselves to be concerned with hence developed a different style of attitude that is part of this great state. Western Australia first the rest second. However once you fit in to the thinking you too will not really care for the same issues that you once did. Perth is a wonderful city dissected by a lovely scenic river. It offers everything that you would expect and more. House prices are through the roof and the cost of living is slightly higher. Cafés and restaurants are abundant. The local government has its issues but supply of services are of good quality. Local political issues are there but no where the same as New South Wales and maybe Queensland. Western Australians look after themselves and have a positive bright attitude that is unique to the West. The South East of the state is magnificent. Green pastures, rugged coast line quant towns and history. To live there is a pleasure but like most towns but especially in western Australia be prepared to be involved in sport to assimilate into the local communities. Australia rules football reigns supreme for the men and netball for the girls don't even think about rugby( some soccer is OK ) Much of the social activity is around theses sports and associated club.

Morally Western Australia is at the top of Australian states. Congratulation there is no poker machines in the state and the sleazy parts of life are very well hidden. People in Western Australia reflect this attitude and it is a feather in their caps.

Downside well weather can be very diverse. cold in the south to hot in Perth and upwards. Distance is a issue in remote areas and you can travel lengthy distances to get to some services. As mentioned House prices are horrendous do your homework here. Moving cost too can be horrendous from interstate. Check container moves here. Overseas obtain local and Australian quotes, deal with reputable companies only.
