| 3 | Have friends there and they love it. I worked there for a bit and everyone was great. No idea about prices but expect it to be one of the more reasonably priced places still. bryalea - 2021-06-04 07:03:00 |

That is at Tangimoana (Govt Comms base) and is even further away from Marton than Ohakea. The hospital was Lake Alice and you are able to Google that. Like all of these places some were helped immensely while others had bad experiences. shanreagh - 2021-06-04 15:19:00 |
| 11 | Prices have gone up significantly over the last 5 years, with lots of growth in the area. When we shifted to the area 8 years ago houses could easily be on the market for a year or more. Now turnover is very quick. Sections are going for $150k+, and trade me will give you a good indication of house prices. annam08 - 2021-06-04 15:38:00 |
