Question 1

Is Proston a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Proston is a small rural service town of about 410 people with a median age of 54. Its compact main street and community facilities support the surrounding agricultural district, and housing ranges from weatherboard cottages and modest brick homes to farmsteads on larger blocks. The town tends to attract farmers, families who want space and retirees, and owner-occupation is common with about four in five homes owned outright or with a mortgage.

Day-to-day life revolves around outdoor recreation and local events: Boondooma Dam is close by for boating and fishing, local tracks suit riding and bushwalking, and community sport and events form the social calendar. Proston State School operates a 25 metre, six-lane pool that the council funds a manager to make available to residents. The Proston Outpatients centre is currently shown as closed, and the community plan flags park upgrades, walking-track and pool works, CCTV for the main street, caravan park and water infrastructure work, a regional housing item and health facility improvements. Whether Proston suits you comes down to how much you value space, outdoor recreation and a quiet country pace of life.
