Question 1

Is Seaton a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Seaton is a small rural locality in Victoria’s Gippsland region, defined by open paddocks, grazing country and pockets of native bush. Housing is mainly farmhouses, sheds and rural residential blocks on larger allotments, so the area has a low-density country feel. Days here revolve around outdoor life, machinery and the seasons, with creeks and bushland providing spots for walks and birdwatching. Local roads are the main transport routes and residents tend to be farming families, people seeking acreage and those who value a quieter pace while still accessing services in nearby regional towns.

The community is small, with 161 people, a median age of 48 and a median household income of $1,833 a week. Households are dominated by couple families and homes are overwhelmingly owner-occupied. Recent council-funded works have reconstructed and widened sections of Heyfield Seaton Road, and further widening of Seaton Glenmaggie Road and Seymours Lane is planned. Whether Seaton suits you will come down to whether a low-density, rural lifestyle tied to the seasons and outdoor work is what you want.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Seaton?

Accepted Answer

Seaton's median household income as recorded at the most recent Census was $1,833 a week, but there haven't been enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable house or unit prices or rents for the suburb. Without current price or rent figures, it's not possible to say how expensive it is to live in Seaton compared with local incomes at the most recent Census.

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