Question 1

Is Riverside a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Riverside is a quiet riverfront locality on the Mid North Coast with a semi-rural, low-density character. Streets are leafy and many properties sit on larger blocks, so there is space for gardens, boats and outdoor living. Housing ranges from older weatherboard cottages to more recent low-set brick homes. Life here is shaped by the water, with fishing, boating and riverside walks common weekend pursuits, and a relaxed pace that suits families and retirees alike.

About 300 people live in Riverside and the median age is 53, with a median household income of $1,461 a week (roughly $76,000 a year). Families are largely made up of couples, and most homes are owner-occupied (57.3% owned outright and 35.0% with a mortgage). Everyday services and schools are accessed in nearby town centres, so whether Riverside suits you will depend on how important close-in services are compared with riverside space and a small-community atmosphere.
