Question 1

Is Kangaroo Point a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Kangaroo Point is a small riverside suburb on the Georges River in southern Sydney's Sutherland Shire, with calm water frontage and a quiet, village-like atmosphere. Streets are low-density and leafy, and housing ranges from older cottages to renovated waterfront homes that often include private jetties and easy access to boating and riverside parks. The suburb is residential rather than commercial, so residents typically use neighbouring shopping strips and facilities. Kangaroo Point Reserve is a small riverside public reserve managed by Sutherland Shire Council.

About 602 people live in Kangaroo Point, the median age is 46 and the typical household income is $4,111 a week. Owner-occupiers make up 97.3% of homes, and families are prominent: 50.6% are couple families with children and 40.4% are couple families without children. That mix points to a settled, waterside neighbourhood that suits people after a relaxed, boating-oriented lifestyle, especially families and boating enthusiasts. There are no significant new public infrastructure or civic amenity projects in the suburb.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Kangaroo Point?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Kangaroo Point to publish reliable house and unit price or rent figures. Because of that, it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live in Kangaroo Point compared with local household incomes recorded at the most recent Census.

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 Kangaroo Point a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

Without those published movements, there isn't a clear picture of how the suburb has performed as an investment lately.
