Just wait til you drive around and see the screens / cages on all the house windows - that'll give you some idea. And I noticed these as much, if not more, in Port rather than in South. Going to the shopping centres there can be a real eye opener.

Get a guided tour of the South Hedland ghettos Ken its an eye opener!!!
On our last trip up north we stayed at the South Hedland caravan park.
The biggest shock was a visit to the South Hedland supermarket.Had a display from the local native ladies whilst walking from the carpark to the shops.Dont want to sound racsist at all,2 were having a dump between parked cars,the other doing no1s.
WHATS WRONG WITH USING THE FACILITIES INSIDE!!!

Hey mate, hope it's all going well over there for you. As for the above - no offence but get used to it. It's the same from there over to Queensland. Katherine used to be shocken for it - and they have no issue in screwing each other either.
After 12 months you won't even notice it much anymore, or if you do you won't care.
Cheers
