Question 1

Is Burnside a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Burnside is a semi-rural suburb in Western Australia’s South West with a quietly country feel, spacious low-density blocks and established homes. Many properties back onto paddocks or native vegetation rather than busy streets, so it suits people after more room and a slower pace. It appeals to families, retirees and anyone wanting a relaxed lifestyle close to regional amenities.

It is a small community of 309 people, with a median age of 42 and a median household income of $2,134 a week (about $111,000 a year). Families are prominent, and homes are overwhelmingly owner-occupied with around 90.6% owned outright or with a mortgage. Residents rely on nearby regional centres for shopping and services, local schools listed for the area include St Thomas More Catholic Primary School and Margaret River Senior High School, and road links provide straightforward access to surrounding towns while the coast, bushland and recreational attractions are close by.

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent property sales or rentals in Burnside 6285 to publish reliable house, unit or rent figures. Without those, it isn't possible to describe how expensive it is to live here compared with local incomes recorded at the most recent Census.
