Question 1

Is Mulambin a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Mulambin is a small coastal suburb on the Capricorn Coast, next to Emu Park, with a sandy shoreline at Mulambin Beach and a relaxed seaside feel. Streets are dominated by low-set, single-storey beach houses and holiday homes, and a strip of foreshore parkland gives easy spots for picnics and coastal walks. Daily life centres on swimming, fishing and enjoying the water, while nearby Emu Park supplies local shops and cafes and Rockhampton provides larger services.

Home to 917 people with a median age of 38, Mulambin’s households have a typical weekly income of $2,045 (roughly $106,340 a year). The community is weighted towards couples, who make up about 86.8% of families, and most homes are owner-occupied (68.5%) with around 31.4% rented. Several local projects are planned or under way, including a new shire transport link, an extension of the coastal shared pathway through Mulambin, and boat-ramp works, and the beach and foreshore have been included in council park funding. Whether Mulambin suits you comes down to whether a quiet, beachside lifestyle with ready regional access is what you want.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Mulambin?

Accepted Answer

House rents in Mulambin sit at about $690 a week. Against a typical local household income of $2,045 a week as recorded at the most recent Census, that rent would take roughly 33.7% of a typical local household's income at the last Census, which is a sizeable share of income. If you're renting rather than buying, that rent share is the number that will matter when you're weighing up costs.

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 Mulambin a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

For someone weighing Mulambin as an investment, the house side showed a strong change over the past year: median house values climbed 28.4%, while house rents rose 6.2% over the same period. That means the value change outpaced rental growth this year, so capital growth was the stronger performer for houses on the figures available.

Whether that balance between price growth and rental growth fits your objectives depends on your goals and circumstances.
