Question 1

Is Cardup a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Cardup is a quiet semi-rural suburb on Perth’s outer southern fringe, made up of rural-residential blocks, hobby farms and horse properties set among rolling farmland and pockets of native bush. Streets are spacious and low density, and housing ranges from older farmhouses to newer low-density homes, giving a relaxed, spread-out character. Outdoor and equestrian pursuits are common, and daily life is shaped more by paddocks and local trails than by a commercial strip; shops and services are accessed in nearby Byford and Mundijong. That makes Cardup well suited to people after a country-style lifestyle and households comfortable with low-density living.

The community numbers 1,163 people, with a median age of 40 and a median household income of $2,645 a week. Families form the bulk of households, and owner-occupation is high (about 94.9% overall) while renters make up 5.0% of homes. The Cardup Business Park is the suburb’s principal precinct and has a structure plan and local studies exploring rezoning and economic options. On-the-ground works include completed Soldiers Road upgrades that realigned and resurfaced roundabouts, and planned new streetlighting for streets such as Bournbrook Avenue and Gallagher Way.

Accepted Answer
