Living in Rubicon: people, income and schools

Rubicon has a resident population of roughly 44, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 55, it reads as an older, established demographic, and 76% 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 $68,000 a year (about $1,310 a week). On socio-economic measures it ranks around the national middle on the ABS advantage index (4 out of 10). At current prices a median house runs to about 6.9 times local household income, in line with much of metropolitan Australia. Locally, around 32% of household income goes to mortgage repayments, a level usually flagged as mortgage stress.
