Question 1

Is Putty a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Putty is a remote rural locality in the Hunter region centred on the scenic Putty Road and fringed by Wollemi National Park bushland. The landscape is creek-lined valleys and sandstone ridges, and housing is mainly acreage properties, hobby farms and bush cabins rather than suburban streets. It suits people after a quiet, outdoors-oriented life with ready access to bushwalking, horse riding and camping, and it attracts residents who value space and privacy. Local services are limited, so day-to-day shopping and schools are found in nearby towns and the road remains the suburb’s main link to the outside world.

The community is very small, with 126 people, a median age of 48 and a median household income of $1,093 a week. Family types are varied, and homes are predominantly owner-occupied (83.7% combined) while renters make up 16.4% of dwellings. Several state and council road projects focused on Putty Road and nearby rural routes are affecting the area, from repairs and remediation to gravel resheeting and junction upgrades, which are relevant because the road is the principal connection for residents.
