Question 1

Is Keppel Sands a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Keppel Sands is a small coastal village on the Capricorn Coast beside Keppel Bay, with Great Keppel Island visible offshore and sheltered waters used for fishing, boating and quiet waterfront leisure.

The community is older, with incomes below the Queensland median and many households owning their homes outright, with 52.3% of homes owned outright; the town centres on a modest cluster of shops and services that meet everyday needs, and rural-residential blocks surround the village while local roads link it with Yeppoon and Rockhampton. The council is preparing a Keppel Sands Walking Network Plan, with a draft works program and priority footpaths identified for future construction.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Keppel Sands?

Accepted Answer

Keppel Sands hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable house or unit prices or typical weekly rents. Because of that, it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live in Keppel Sands 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.

Accepted Answer
