Question 1

Is Emu Point a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Emu Point is a small Albany suburb on King George Sound near Middleton Beach, with a foreshore reserve, lookout points along the shoreline and a compact local strip.

The community is older, with many households owner-occupied and 72.5% of homes owned outright, and couples without children are common. Everyday life centres on swimming, fishing and coastal strolls from the reserve, supported by walking paths and a boat ramp, and the Emu Beach Foreshore Management Plan has been endorsed to guide coastal adaptation, including trial geotextile sand-container groynes.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Emu Point?

Accepted Answer

A typical local household in Emu Point earned about $1,055 a week at the most recent Census, according to ABS data. There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Emu Point to publish reliable house or unit price and rent figures, so it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live here compared with local incomes.

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