Question 1

Is Currency Creek a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Currency Creek is a quiet rural locality on the Fleurieu Peninsula, centred on the creek and wetland system that feeds into Lake Alexandrina. The feel is agricultural and low-density, with vineyards in the Currency Creek wine region, grazing paddocks and scattered farmsteads alongside pockets of bush. Many residents are farmers, vineyard owners, retirees and people drawn to a water-edge country lifestyle focused on birdlife, boating and fishing. Local green spaces include the Currency Creek Game Reserve and a small Lions Park.

The community is small—443 people with a median age of 48—and households are strongly family-oriented. About nine in ten homes are owner-occupied and the typical household income is $1,625 a week. Local services are limited, with country roads linking residents to larger coastal towns for shops, schools and medical care. Whether Currency Creek suits you comes down to whether a low-density, rural life with close access to water fits what you want.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Currency Creek?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Currency Creek to publish reliable house or unit prices or average rents. Because only the median household income from the most recent Census is available, it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live in the suburb compared with local incomes at the last Census.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.

Accepted Answer
