The town of Northam where the Stacys are living actually considered a "super town" by Western Australia standards. They have a couple of grocery stores, library, pool, lots of car dealerships, and the tiniest Target you've ever seen. It is known for hot air ballooning and the Avon River. That's about it. Amanda says they roll up the sidewalks at 4 pm and nothing is open on Sundays. Fortunately, I was there on a Sunday, so I got to go to church with them. The church was small, and the people were friendly. They seemed very welcoming to Josh and Amanda, and there are lots of little kids around AJ and Izzy's ages.
We also got a chance to visit a couple of small towns in the area -- Toodyay and York -- that had a Mountain View-feel to them.
