Question 1

Is Aloomba a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Aloomba is a small rural-residential locality south of Gordonvale on the coastal plain beneath rainforest-clad ranges. It has a country feel, with cane fields, paddocks, hobby farms and low-density housing where older farmhouses sit alongside newer rural residences. Life centres on outdoor space, room for gardens and animals, and easy access to rainforest walking and the coast. The community of 576 people has a median age of 41 and a typical household income of $1,699 a week, and 73.3% of homes are owner-occupied.

Local services are limited, so residents rely on nearby Gordonvale or Cairns for shopping, schools and other amenities, with road links keeping those conveniences within reach. Aloomba is part of the Cairns Water Security program and sits in the Cairns and Hinterland health catchment, where the Cairns Hospital Campus Master Plan includes a Health Innovation & Surgical Centre and other campus works. Whether Aloomba suits you depends on how much you value rural space within reach of town services.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Aloomba?

Accepted Answer

Aloomba hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable house or unit prices or typical rents. Without those current price and rent figures, there's no clear way to say how expensive living in Aloomba is compared with local household incomes recorded at the most recent Census.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.

Accepted Answer
