Question 1

Is Rossmore a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Rossmore sits on Sydney’s south-western fringe and has a country-style feel within reach of the metropolitan edge. The suburb is defined by large acreage blocks, hobby farms and horse properties among rolling paddocks and pockets of native bush, so homes tend to have space and private outlooks rather than typical suburban frontages. Streets are quiet and rural roads dominate, local shopping and services are in nearby centres, and most people rely on private cars with links to the region’s arterial network via Bringelly Road and the Westlink M7.

About 2,241 people call Rossmore home, with a median age of 40 and a typical household income of $1,827 a week. The community is weighted towards families and roughly two in three dwellings are owner-occupied while 33.6% are rented. Local assets include Rossmore Public School, Rossmore Reserve and adjacency to the Western Sydney Parklands, and a significant indoor and outdoor recreation facility is currently under assessment. Whether Rossmore suits you depends on whether you want a rural feel close to city amenities and a family-oriented community.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Rossmore?

Accepted Answer

For renters in Rossmore, an average house rent of $800 a week is about 43.8% of a typical local household's weekly income at the last Census. On these figures, renting a house would take a large share of what a typical local household earned then, so whether that 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 Rossmore a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

House rents in Rossmore rose a modest 3.2% over the past year, so rental income from houses has edged up in that period. There isn't enough recent data here to show how property values or unit rents moved over the same 12 months, so the available figure speaks only to rental income; whether that fits your goals is for you to weigh up.
