Question 1

Is Roadvale a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Roadvale is a small rural village in the Scenic Rim hinterland, set among rolling farmland, paddocks and pockets of eucalypt bush. Life follows a slow country pace and it attracts people who work the land, run hobby farms or are after acreage and space rather than suburban living. Housing ranges from classic timber cottages to contemporary rural homes along wide country roads, and day-to-day services are accessed via regional roads to nearby centres; bushwalking, creeks and open farmland are hallmarks of local life.

With a community of 303 and a median age of 46, Roadvale is a suburb dominated by couple households and overwhelmingly owner-occupied (96.6%). The typical household reports a median total income of $1,460 a week (about $75,920 a year). Recent council-backed upgrades have supported the Roadvale School of Arts with water-supply and stormwater works and the Progress Association received a minor grant for pickleball equipment, while a proposed parkland and public toilet has been considered and road repairs for a landslip have been approved. Whether Roadvale suits you will come down to whether you want rural space and a small community.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Roadvale?

Accepted Answer

The ABS records a median total household income of $1,460 a week in Roadvale at the most recent Census. However, there haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in the suburb to publish reliable house or unit prices and rents, so it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live in Roadvale 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.
