Question 1

Is Mount Larcom a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Mount Larcom sits beneath its distinctive volcanic plug and has a compact main street on the Bruce Highway and the North Coast railway.

Mount Larcom is an older community where couples without children make up 53.9% of families and incomes are below the median for Queensland. Everyday life mixes farming and outdoor recreation, with shops and community facilities clustered around the sports ground and town hall and larger coastal centres and regional services within easy reach. Gladstone Regional Council has identified the Mount Larcom Swimming Pool as having reached its end of life and sought community feedback on a vision for a future replacement.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Mount Larcom?

Accepted Answer

At the most recent Census, a typical Mount Larcom household earned about $1,268 a week. There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Mount Larcom to publish reliable price and rent figures, so it's not possible to say how expensive it is to live there 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.
