Suburb profile
Cortlinye is a residential smaller community in Kimba with a familiar suburban feel. Remote from the metro area in the best sense: quiet streets, big skies and a town that runs on its own timetable. Families and commuters make up much of the community, with a strong presence of young families throughout.
Local identity runs deep. This is the kind of place people stay once they have found it. Housing carries a premium, but residents tend to feel the lifestyle justifies the commitment.
