My company is considering sending me to Kroonstad in the Northern Free State for a 3 year project.
Might make it worth my while in allowances & include accommodation & relocation cost for my family.
Anyone hail from this town or has anything good or bad to say about it?
The bad:
Water is very dirty for the past 4 years.
Roads are horrible(Not maintained).
Crime levels are low but size/ratio factor.
Garbage collection somethings pulls 2 weeks to collect your garbage,you have to phone and swear.
No 8ta connection, NO LTE.
Vodacom and MTN coverage good only in the city.
Cellc networks is over used!
No Malls, But you can travel welkom(25minutes drive).
No Movie/Cinema's.
The good:
Telkom ADSL at my place is 4MB/s and that's max out.
There 4 Telkom Wifi hotspot location(If you ask me I going to tell you 3 of 4, since the one I abuse and now my brother abuses it).
There are 5 other wifi hotspots(Always-on,..).
The high schools are good and primary schools are decent.
All the bank are there. There 2 x pick and pay.
There's shop-rite, checkers and many shops.
