Live

Collie is located some 60kms inland from the city of Bunbury, and offers a relaxed lifestyle, best described as a mix of urban, industrial and agricultural aspects.

With a population in excess of 9,000 Collie provides all the services and facilities which are normally associated with a large regional centre. Services include schools, shopping, a scheme water supply, deep sewerage, hospital, power, telephone, normal postal services, sealed roads, infant and family centre, child care centre, significant aged care facilities, TAFE campus, medical, dental and allied health services and a local taxi service.

Collie offers its residents the opportunity of having all the services and facilities, yet does not lose its country town feel. It is a warm and friendly community surrounded by forests, rivers and lakes – while a short thirty five minute drive opens up the opportunities provided by the City of Bunbury and the Indian Ocean, Collie residents truly have the best of both worlds. Residents are afforded a relaxed country lifestyle while having access to City services and facilities.

Shopping

The central business district offers a variety of shopping options, with two national supermarkets, discount department store, specialty shops including clothing, gift ware, sports and camping, chemist, optometrist, craft supplies, haridressers, florists, bakery, newsagents, four banks (all with ATM facilities) and many others. Two air conditioned shopping arcades make shopping comfortable whatever the weather. Markets, selling home grown and home made wares, are held in the heritage listed Goods Shed on Forrest Street on alternate Sunday mornings - contact the Collie Visitor Centre for dates.

Collie is currently going through a period of significant activity in the housing market. The coupling of extremely well priced residential land & residential dwellings is creating interest amongst potential residents and investors alike.
