Question 1

Is Goomboorian a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Goomboorian is a quiet rural locality in the Gympie region among rolling hills, pasture and stands of eucalypt bush. Its built character is acreage properties and small farms rather than suburban streets, so hobby farmers, horse owners and families are drawn to space, privacy and a slower pace. Outdoor pursuits, small-scale agriculture and bushland living shape everyday life. The locality contains Goomboorian National Park and the Goomboorian Memorial Hall, used for community events and as a polling place.

The community numbers 566 people, with a median age of 51 and a median household income of $1,266 a week, roughly $65,800 a year. Homes are largely owner-occupied, about 83.1% owned outright or with a mortgage and 16.8% rented, so owner-occupiers outnumber renters by roughly five to one. There are few commercial facilities in Goomboorian itself, so residents use nearby Gympie for shopping, schools and services via local roads. That mix will suit people looking for acreage, small-scale farming or bushland living; those who need shops and services on the doorstep will rely on Gympie.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Goomboorian?

Accepted Answer

The ABS recorded a median total household income of $1,266 a week in Goomboorian as recorded at the most recent Census. However, there haven't been enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable house or unit prices and rents for Goomboorian, so it's not possible from these figures to say how expensive housing is 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.
