"The jewel in the crown - the best kept secret in south east Queensland"
I have lived here for 4years and love it, my employment is here also. I only go to Australia, if I am in desperate need of retail therapy, or to visit family or to go to the movies, which isn't very often. I make my trips over something to look forward to. You cant live life just shopping, there is so much more to life.
Russell Island is such a great place for a first home buyer ( be you young or mature) to get into the market, while it is still affordable. One day we will be discovered and when that happens, hold onto your hat, it will explode.
There are craft groups, church groups, art groups, wildlife groups, the RSL and Bowls Club, as well as sporting groups, library and writing group, the list goes on.
we have a great cafe/restaurant Aunty Alices which is a great meeting place for all,and great coffee too.
Who lives here?
- Professionals
- Singles
- Families with kids
- Retirees
There are numerous institutions/organisations on Russell Island, including a primary school, a supermarket, an RSL, a Bowls club, various accommodation venues, etc. My advice would be to secure a prospective appointment/job at one of these places first, then move there.
I am looking into moving over there it looks great, cheap rent i couldnt believe it. but.. i will need a job and by the looks of it there isnt much over there.. i would realy love to move there but bit worried about the lack of jobs.. is there much over there?
