Living in Boambee: people, income and schools

About 1,770 people live in Boambee, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. The median age is 47, skewed a little older, and 87% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

Households here earn a median of about $106,000 a year, or roughly $2,050 a week. On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10).
