I grew up in Cairns, a small city in far north Queensland. When it came time to go to uni, a huge subset of our year shifted to Brisbane (those looking on - Brisbane is Queensland's capital city and has far better tertiary education available than the rest of the state). After uni, it seems everyone is shifting to Sydney/Melbourne.
This simply shows people will aggregate toward where opportunity pre-exists.

You say Cairns, but perhaps do you mean Atherton, or Tolga? Because that's where I grew up, and your name is awfully familiar.
Nay; Edmonton, on the south side. I did attend Cairns SHS from 2004-2006, if that's of help.
