Question 1

Is Laguna a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Laguna sits on the rural fringe of Maitland in the Hunter region and is a quiet, semi-rural suburb of larger lots, paddocks and pockets of native bush. Housing ranges from older rural cottages to newer family homes, and daily needs are met by nearby Maitland and local shopping villages. Outdoor life is a strong part of living here, with open rural land, local walking routes and easy access to the Hunter Valley and the coast, while residents commonly travel to surrounding centres for work and recreation.

It is a very small community of 310 people with a median age of 57 and a typical household income of $1,348 a week (about $70,100 a year). The area is weighted towards couple families without children and overwhelmingly owner-occupied. Council-led works have included bridge replacements, upgrades to rural fire service facilities and school improvements at Laguna Public School. If you value a country-style lifestyle while staying close to regional services, Laguna may suit you.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Laguna?

Accepted Answer

Laguna hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to put reliable figures on what homes cost to buy or rent. Because of that, it's not possible to say how expensive it is to live in Laguna compared with local incomes as 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 Laguna a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

Laguna hasn't had enough recent property sales to put reliable figures on how house and unit values and rents have changed over the past year. Without that, there isn't a clear picture of how the suburb has performed as an investment lately.
