Housing, rent and growth

Housing & rent

ABS Census 2021

Median rent is 33% of median household income. In the 30–50% rental-stress range

MeasureValuevs other NSW suburbs
Median rent$350/week higher than 57%
Median household income$1,067/week higher than 16%
Rent as a share of income33% higher than 94%
Median mortgage repayment$1,700/month higher than 42%
Homes that are rented10% higher than 24%
Owned outright59% higher than 90%
Social housing0% higher than 34%
Average household size2.1 people higher than 16%

2021 Census figures: rents and incomes have risen since, so compare suburbs rather than reading today's prices. The rent share uses the median rent and the median income of all households (owners included), so it is a guide, not the share any one renter pays. The 30% benchmark is a common convention.

Official recorded-crime statistics published by state police and crime statistics agencies, divided by 2021 Census or ABS population estimates. See the methodology page for details.

Data notes

  • Population is estimated (medium confidence) from the ABS 2021 Census.
  • Recorded crime counts offences reported to or detected by police where they occurred. That includes offences against visitors and businesses, so busy centres score higher than their resident risk.
  • States classify offences differently, so ranks compare areas within the same state.
