Question 1

Is Goomeri a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Goomeri, QLD 4601, is a small historic country town in the South Burnett that serves surrounding grazing and cropping properties. Its compact main street of timber shopfronts, a country pub and a handful of cafés is the focus of local life, which revolves around weekend markets, sporting clubs and regular community festivals. Housing ranges from low-maintenance cottages and brick homes close to town to larger acreage and lifestyle blocks on the outskirts, and the community of 677 people has a median age of 52 and is largely owner-occupied (68.5%), a sign of a settled local population.

Local facilities include Goomeri State School P–10 and a community health service, and recent council and state programs record road reconstruction and intersection work, a tender for upgrades to the water treatment plant and staged repairs to the Hall of Memory. Whether Goomeri suits you depends on whether you want a small, established rural town with local shops, regular community events and nearby school and health services while remaining within reach of regional centres.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Goomeri?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Goomeri to put reliable house or unit prices and rents on record. Without those figures, it's not possible to say how expensive it is to live in Goomeri 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.
