Question 1

Is Wights Mountain a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Wights Mountain sits on the foothills of the D'Aguilar Range and keeps a distinctly semi-rural, country-residential feel, with rolling tree-covered hills, bushland and a spread of larger blocks and hobby farms. Commercial development inside the suburb is minimal, so everyday shops and many services are in neighbouring centres, but the suburb does contain the Samford Valley Steiner School and local roadworks associated with it included a council intersection upgrade to widen shoulders, add turning lanes and renew pavement and linemarking. Public open space includes Harold Brown Park, home to the Samford Golden Valley Pony Club, and Royce Fathers Reserve, a council bushland recreation reserve of about 6.49 hectares, with rehabilitation and revegetation work recorded for local parks.

With 767 residents, a median age of 48 and a household income around $3,091 a week, Wights Mountain is a small, settled community weighted towards couple families, both with and without children, and overwhelmingly owner-occupied housing. It will suit people after space, privacy and outdoor living rather than an urban lifestyle; whether that matches what you want depends on how much you need nearby shops and services.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Wights Mountain?

Accepted Answer

In Wights Mountain there haven't been enough recent sales or rentals to publish reliable median house, unit or rent figures for the suburb. With only the local median total household income of $3,091 a week as recorded at the most recent Census, it's not possible to describe how expensive housing is here compared with what people locally earned at that Census.

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