Question 1

Is Boonooroo a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Boonooroo is a small coastal village on Queensland’s Fraser Coast, set among estuarine shorelines, mangroves and low-lying beaches. It has a quiet, low-density character of mostly single-storey weatherboard and timber holiday homes and permanent residences on generous waterfront or bushland blocks. Daily life centres on fishing, boating and birdwatching, and the locality’s amenities are modest so residents rely on nearby coastal towns for larger shops and services.

With 371 people, a median age of 63 and a typical household income of $913 a week, Boonooroo is weighted towards older, owner-occupied households; about 87.6% of homes are owned outright or with a mortgage and couple families without children make up roughly 69.5% of families. The suburb includes a public boat ramp and foreshore reserve at Boonooroo Point, which has been the focus of ongoing coastal-management attention involving council and community consultation. Whether it suits you will depend on whether you want a relaxed, nature-focused seaside pace and are comfortable relying on nearby towns for bigger services.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Boonooroo?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Boonooroo 4650 to publish reliable house or unit prices or typical rents. With only the median total household income recorded at the most recent Census, $913 a week, available, it's not possible to say how expensive it is to live here compared with local incomes.

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 Boonooroo a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

House values in Boonooroo fell 8.8% over the past 12 months, a notable decline in house capital value for the year. There isn't enough recent data for other parts of the market to say how units or rents have moved, so the house value change is the primary market signal available here. Whether that movement makes Boonooroo the right investment for you depends on your goals and circumstances.
