Question 1

Is Mount Burrell a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Mount Burrell is a small rural community in the Northern Rivers hinterland, set on the wooded slopes of the mountain that gives it its name. The locality is dominated by forested hills, rolling farmland and acreage properties, with a mix of weatherboard cottages and contemporary retreat-style homes tucked into the bush. It appeals to people after privacy and a nature-focused lifestyle, with local walking tracks, birdlife and hilltop outlooks. Everyday shops and services are limited, so residents look to nearby Mullumbimby and the coastal towns for schools, cafés and retail needs.

With a population of 276 and a median age of 53, Mount Burrell is a settled place where about 90% of homes are owner-occupied (65.3% owned outright and 24.5% owned with a mortgage) and couple families (with and without children) represent 73.1% of families. Regional bus services stop at Mount Burrell Store, and the locality is currently the focus of road-stabilisation, landslip repair and other local road works. If you prioritise privacy, bushland and an established, owner-occupied community, Mount Burrell may suit you; if you need shops and schools on the doorstep you would look to nearby towns.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Mount Burrell?

Accepted Answer

Mount Burrell hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to put reliable figures on what homes cost to buy or rent. Without those price and rent figures, there isn't a clear picture of how expensive it is to live here compared with the local household income recorded at the most recent Census.
