Question 1

Is Aubin Grove a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Aubin Grove is a quiet, modern residential suburb in southern Perth's City of Cockburn, anchored by streets of single-family homes and newer estate developments. The community of 6,786 has a median age of 33 and a median household income of $2,490 a week. Couple families with children make up 63.5% of families and, together with couple families without children, account for about 86.6% of families. Most homes are owner-occupied (75.9%), with renters at 24.1%, so the area tends to attract young families and professionals looking for a suburban pace.

Daily life centres on parks, playgrounds and sporting ovals, a handful of neighbourhood shops and local community facilities. Transport is a strong point: Aubin Grove station on the Mandurah line includes a bus interchange and park-and-ride with direct services to Perth and Mandurah, and there are convenient links to the Kwinana Freeway. The suburb has a large primary school and a sport and community facility for local clubs, and it sits within the City of Cockburn’s Southern Suburbs District Structure Plan for open space and infrastructure. Whether this suits you comes down to what you want from a suburb.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Aubin Grove?

Accepted Answer

On the figures, a median house in Aubin Grove at $1,250,000 works out to about 9.7 times a typical local household's annual income as recorded at the last Census (household income $2,490 a week, or $129,480 a year). That multiple sits well above local incomes at the last Census.

Renting a house at about $750 a week would take roughly 30.1% of a typical local household's weekly income at the last Census, which is a sizeable share. On these figures, renting looks the less stretched option compared with buying, but whether that feels expensive depends on your own income and circumstances.

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

Question 3

Is Aubin Grove a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

House values in Aubin Grove climbed 18.2% over the past 12 months, a strong rise in what a house is worth. Over the same year house rents increased 4.2%, a modest gain, so capital growth clearly outpaced rental income this year. If rental income is your priority, the rent rise was comparatively modest; if you care more about price growth, the value change is the larger movement to note.
