Townsville is the dry tropics, and the numbers are blunt about it: Townsville Aero averages 1,162.3mm of rain a year, of which 915.6mm — close to four-fifths — falls across December to March, while May through September each average under 35mm (Bureau of Meteorology site averages). It lies south of Cairns and gets barely half as much rain, so a Cairns-shaped assumption about the wet season does not transfer. The city is in a cyclone-rated wind region all the same, so structural fixings and glazing are specified to loads no south-east Queensland job meets, and a defence and university population means a larger share of homes here are rented than owned.
