A QLD REGION OFFERING A LAID BACK LIFESTYLE, NATURAL ATTRACTIONS AND MODERN FACILITIES
Townsville, also proudly known as Queensland’s Second Capital, is a coastal city in northeastern Queensland. It’s a dynamic urban hub with a strong economic potential and a wide range of modern conveniences.
If you’d like to spend your retirement years being close to natural wonders, Townsville has you covered. It has numerous outdoor areas to enjoy, the Billabong Sanctuary wildlife park to see crocodiles, koalas and wombats and the stunning Magnetic Island nearby.
Retirees and older citizens can enjoy sunny weather for most of the year, good retailing options and dining precincts. It’s also a region with affordable housing and modern health care services. The Townsville Hospital and Health Service has 19 hospitals and community health campuses and two aged care facilities.
Seniors have the opportunity to make valuable contributions to the Townsville community as volunteers, workers, community leaders, carers and more. Every year the City Council recognises their important role and commitment by granting the Townsville Senior Awards.
