Question 1

Is Robertson a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Robertson is a highland village marked by the Big Potato, a compact main street of independent shops and galleries, and nearby national parks and walking country.

Robertson is an older community where couples without children make up 47.2% of families and many households own their homes outright. Hampden Park contains sporting facilities for soccer, cricket and tennis, and the Hampden Park Master Plan was adopted by council and identifies upgrades for the park.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Robertson?

Accepted Answer

House rents in Robertson run to about $715 a week. Against a typical local household income of about $1,736 a week at the last Census, that rent would take roughly 41% of a typical local household's income, a large share of weekly earnings, so renting a house here would use a significant portion of what a typical local household earned.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.
