Question 1

Is Runnymede a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Runnymede is a quiet rural locality in the South Burnett, defined by broad farmland, grazing country and scattered homesteads. Housing is mostly larger lifestyle blocks and working farms rather than suburban streets, with tree-lined laneways and calm country roads. Daily life revolves around rural pursuits, outdoor space and self-sufficiency, and the paddocks, creek lines and stands of native eucalypt make it suitable for people seeking acreage, privacy and room for animals.

It is a very small community of 192 people, with a median age of 51 and a median household income of $1,171 a week (roughly $60,900 a year). Families are dominated by couples, who together make up about nine in ten families, and around 79.7% of homes are owner-occupied while renters are 20.3%. Shops, schools and more extensive services are found in neighbouring towns, and no significant new infrastructure or development projects are reported locally, so whether Runnymede suits you will depend on how much you value rural space and self-reliance.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Runnymede?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Runnymede to publish reliable current house or unit prices or typical rents. The ABS recorded a median total household income of $1,171 a week in Runnymede at the most recent Census, but on its own this doesn't let us judge whether housing is expensive without current prices or rents.

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 Runnymede a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales in Runnymede to publish reliable figures on how house or unit values and rents changed over the past year. Without those published movements, it isn't possible to describe how the suburb has performed as an investment over the last 12 months.
