Question 1

Is Lansdowne a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Lansdowne is a quiet rural locality in the Manning Valley on the Mid North Coast. Set along the Lansdowne River and surrounded by farmland and native bush, it has a country feel where outdoor life and space are the drawcards. The housing stock is dominated by older farmhouses and rural residential blocks, and the small community of 607 people includes hobby farmers, established primary producers, families and retirees. The median age is 52 and the typical household income is $1,005 a week (about $52,260 a year). About nine in ten homes are owner-occupied.

Local life centres on river and bush access, country roads and the small Lansdowne Public School, with the Lansdowne Nature Reserve and the local cemetery nearby. Larger shopping, schooling and health services are located in nearby Taree and Wingham. The locality has also been the subject of multi-stage road betterment works on Lansdowne Road, which have included pavement reconstruction, drainage upgrades, widening, spray sealing and line marking; traffic has been reduced to a single lane at times during daytime works. Whether Lansdowne suits you comes down to whether you value rural space and easy access to river and bush with bigger services a short trip away.

Accepted Answer
