Living in Bardwell Valley: people, income and schools

Bardwell Valley has a resident population of roughly 2,344, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 42, it reads as skewed a little older, and 79% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

The typical household income runs to around $109,000 a year (about $2,100 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks comfortably above the national middle (7 out of 10 on the ABS advantage index). At current prices a median house runs to a steep 18.8 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers. Locally, around 35% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
