Question 1

Is Collingwood Park a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Collingwood Park is an outer Albany suburb with a quietly residential feel. Established streets of single-storey homes sit beside a few larger semi-rural blocks, and local parks and pockets of native bush give everyday green space while keeping Albany’s shops, services and coastal attractions within easy reach. The housing is practical and modest, from older weatherboard and brick houses to newer infill builds, and the suburb is often chosen by families and downsizers seeking space and a relaxed seaside-region lifestyle. It is a small community of 205 people with a median age of 52 and a median household income of $1,388 a week (roughly $72,176 a year). Most homes are owner-occupied, about 78.7% in total.

Collingwood Park forms part of the Centennial Park Sporting Precinct, seen as the city’s second sporting precinct and a preferred site for co-located regional facilities such as tennis, football and hockey, and the local grounds received a Small Grant to install centre wickets and cricket practice nets. The suburb is also included in the Emu Point Precinct Structure Plan, which sets a framework for future tourism, employment and housing opportunities in the precinct. Whether Collingwood Park suits you will depend on whether you want a calm, established suburb with easy access to Albany and room around the house.
