The Kings Cross Chinese Community is one of the most active and enthusiastic groups in the local area. KCB provide a range activities and the Chinese Community also organise some events by themselves, such as fundraising at the County Show. Most of the local Chinese population have lived in the area, enjoying the diversity of Kings Cross.
