Question 1

Is Pleystowe a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Pleystowe is a low-density rural suburb framed by broad sugarcane fields and the historic Pleystowe sugar mill site.

It is a small community of owner-occupiers with incomes above the Queensland median, and couples without children are the largest family group at 44.7% of families. Local roads thread through farmland to shops, schools and regional connections, and outdoor life centres on paddock views, small scale farming and room for hobby agriculture and sheds. The John Cook Bridge safety improvements on Pleystowe Connection Road are scheduled and funded by the Queensland Government through the Transport Infrastructure Development Scheme and Mackay Regional Council.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Pleystowe?

Accepted Answer

A typical local household in Pleystowe earned about $2,050 a week at the most recent Census. There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Pleystowe to publish reliable price or rent figures, so it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live here 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.
