Question 1

Is Booral a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Booral is a semi-rural coastal suburb on the Mid North Coast, set among low bushland, waterways and coastal wetlands that give it a quietly rural-by-the-sea feel. Properties tend to sit on generous lots, from hobby farms and acreage to freestanding homes and weatherboard cottages, so the lifestyle suits families and retirees who want space and outdoor access. Recreational boating, fishing and bushwalking are common pastimes, while shops, schools and health services are located in nearby towns a short drive away. The area is reached by local roads rather than rail and the pace is relaxed and country-oriented.

The community is weighted towards families: couple families with children are 50.4% of families and, with couple families without children at 42.1%, make up 92.5% of reported families. Booral has 457 residents, a median age of 41 and a typical household income of $1,607 a week (about $83,600 a year). Owner-occupiers dominate roughly six in seven homes (86.0%), with renters at 14.0%. Local facilities have seen targeted investment, including upgrades to the Booral Soldiers Memorial Hall, and the local SES base is being replaced by a new Stroud State Emergency Service facility.
