I'd also love to move permanently to the north Queensland or the Pilbara or Kimberly (the Kimberly is wonderful country), similar $ , but add subsidised company housing , subsidised power and subsidised water and airconditioning costs (and it's all pretty good there).

I wouldn't mind living out my retirement in northern Queensland, the Kimberley (Broome or Kununarra) or in Darwin either .... great climate, great fishing, lots of great places to go on 4x4 safari to , very dark and clear skies in easy reach for most of the year - it's not rainy or cloudy all the time in the wet season BTW.
Mate, some of the best living is in Qld and/or the NT. Pic 1 is Dundee Beach. Pic 2 is a sunrise at Ball Bay, Mackay, qld.

Been thinking of moving over to Dundee Beach, NT http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-bin...ge=&p=10&o=def
