Living in Valley View: people, income and schools

About 6,405 people live in Valley View, a number that has held fairly steady over five years. At a median age of 39, it reads as broadly working-age, and 78% of homes are owner-occupied. Owner-occupiers dominate, so stock turns over slowly and listings can be thin when you are trying to buy.

At current prices a median house runs to a steep 11.7 times local household income, so affordability is a genuine constraint on local buyers.
