Question 1

Is Ocean Beach a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Ocean Beach's long sandy shore, prominent surf break and walking shoreline sit beside coastal heath and low dunes.

Ocean Beach is a small, older community where many households own their homes outright (48.9%) and incomes are below the Western Australian median, with couple families without children the largest family group. Shops and services are in nearby Denmark and local roads link the settlement to the South Coast Highway, keeping the area a quiet base for beach activity and bush walks. The Ocean to Channel Recreation Precinct redevelopment has reopened after major works by the Shire of Denmark, with a new seawall completed.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Ocean Beach?

Accepted Answer

Ocean Beach hasn't had enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable price and rent figures, so it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live here compared with local household incomes.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.
