My partner has been offered a job in Mt Isa, 15hrs from where we live now. Pay is excellent but all my family is in the same town as me now. I'm nervous scared but excited. What I am wondering is where are good areas to live, where to avoid. Good doctors, schools etc. my little girl will be 6 next year

Hey, I live in Mount Isa. Feel free to message me on Facebook :) my husband and I both work in the mines. Healy is a great suburb, pioneer is not. Saint Kierans and Saint Josephs are both fantastic primary schools, I went to one of them myself :)
Once we find out I'll definitely add you :) is there anything for kids to do out there? I meant to say our daughter will be 6 this year :)
Do you have a 4WD? There's lots of tracks around here and water holes. There's a fun park for kids too
We will be getting one if he gets the job :) he had a phone interview yesterday and they were very impressed, so that's a plus!
Mount Isa is a unique place to live, you never know you might love it :) it's a great place to get ahead financially - my husband and I live pretty comfortably and still have about $5000 a month spare!
