Question 1

Is Jilliby a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Jilliby is a semi-rural community characterised by rolling bushland, farmland and pockets of native forest around the Jilliby State Conservation Area. It attracts people after acreage living, hobby farms or space for horses, with properties ranging from small farms to country-style homesteads. Life is quiet and outdoors oriented, with bushwalking, riding and creek-lined valleys nearby; regional roads connect the suburb to the wider Central Coast. The local population is 1,694 with a median age of 43, and homes are overwhelmingly owner-occupied (90.4%).

Local services within Jilliby are limited, so residents commonly rely on nearby town centres for shopping, schools and medical care. There have been a small number of local public works, including follow-up testing at the local primary school after traces of lead were found in a tap outlet, masterplanning and embellishment work at the cemetery, and a major regional upgrade to the Mardi Water Treatment Plant as part of broader water and sewer works serving the northern Central Coast.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Jilliby?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent property sales or rentals in Jilliby to publish reliable prices or rents, so it's not possible to describe how expensive housing is here compared with the typical local household income recorded at the most recent Census. The Census shows a median total household income of $2,713 a week in Jilliby, but that figure alone doesn't provide a clear picture of whether buying or renting is more or less costly.

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

Question 3

Is Jilliby a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

Jilliby (NSW 2259) hasn't had enough recent sales to put reliable figures on how house or unit prices and rents moved over the past year, so there isn't a clear picture of how the suburb performed as an investment in that period.
