What is it about Cygnet?
In the last few years apparently more people have moved into
the Cygnet area than in the last ten years combined. What evidence to I have to
substantiate this claim you ask? Well it has been collated from various
sources, the post office, the real estate agents, the servo, the IGA and the
newsagent.
It seems the little hamlet of Cygnet ticks many of the boxes
that appeal to those intending to make the sea-tree change. However this occurrence
is not limited to the cashed-up self-retiree, the alternate life-stylers or the
young families seeking an idyllic country alternative to the stresses of city
life.
