Orange

"Quite pretty - but best for families"

I lived in Orange for 6 months to work at the local hospital - I was told to avoid the areas west of the train line and ended up living on Margaret Street. Orange is a pretty town with wide roads and the occasional traffic hold-up along the main road through town, and plenty of parks. There are mostly houses and units. There is a small Myers and all your usual retail suspects like Woolworths, Coles, Kmart and Big W. There is a mix of people here with your well-to-do, Mercedes driving families to Sudanese refugees to rowdy young miners. Plenty of pubs and fancy restaurants but not much else for a single non-drinker to do at night. I enjoyed the cafes, the cinema is alright and of course you can find a Chinese take-away or two. It can get really cold and snow in winter so do make sure you have good heating! What I liked the most was the fact that I got a clean and bright 1-bedroom unit with fridge, washing machine, dryer and secure attached garage for $200 per week. After living in cramped inner city apartments for the past few years, the space and peace was rather nice.

Who lives here?
