Question 1

Is Quindalup a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Quindalup is a small coastal-rural locality on the shores of Geographe Bay, beside Dunsborough and within the Margaret River region. It has a quiet, low-density character of remnant farmland, native bush and lifestyle blocks, with a mix of older beach cottages and more recent family homes tucked along tree-lined lanes. Living here is outdoors-focused, with easy access to beaches, coastal walks and bushland, while shops, cafes and services are a short drive away in Dunsborough and Busselton. This is a place for people who want space, coastal tranquillity and a country-by-the-sea lifestyle.

The community numbers 1,488 people with a median age of 49 and a median household income of $1,837 a week. Households are largely couples, with 53.3% without children and 39.9% with children, and about four in five homes are owner-occupied. There are also planned local and regional infrastructure projects affecting the suburb, including a replacement of the timber bridge on Quindalup South Road, the Vasse Dunsborough Link realignment of Caves Road, and a Busselton Water pipeline upgrade supplying the local treatment plant.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Quindalup?

Accepted Answer

In Quindalup, a house renting for $780 a week would take about 42.5% of a typical local household's weekly income as recorded at the last Census. On these figures that is a large share of income, so renting a house here would use a substantial portion of what a typical local household earned at the last Census.

If you're renting rather than buying, that rent share is the most relevant number; whether it feels expensive depends on your own income and circumstances.

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 Quindalup a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

Over the past 12 months in Quindalup house values rose a strong 26.1%, while house rents climbed a more modest 4.0%. That means on the house side capital growth outpaced rental income over the year; if rental income is your priority the rent movement is the figure to watch, while the value change shows what happened to capital over the year. Whether that pattern suits your investment goals depends on your own circumstances.
