Question 1

Is Etty Bay a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Etty Bay is a coastal village on the Cassowary Coast where rainforest-clad hills meet a sheltered sandy bay on the Coral Sea. The beach is the suburb’s focus, known for regular cassowary sightings and calm water that attracts swimmers, snorkellers and families. Housing is mostly low-rise holiday and permanent homes tucked into tropical vegetation, giving a relaxed small-community feel, with basic visitor facilities and a pleasant outlook over the bay; shops and services are in the nearby town.

The community numbers 486 people, with a median age of 41 and a median total household income of $1,765 a week. About nine in ten homes are owner-occupied, and couple families with and without children make up the large majority of families. Recent local works have upgraded the Etty Bay Road crossing and water main, there have been public amenities improvements and funding for the surf life saving club, and a cycle link along Etty Bay Road is included in regional active-transport planning.
