The average 1-bed is about <strong>$1,648/month</strong> vs <strong>$1,739</strong> statewide (source: <a href="https://www.domain.com.au">Domain</a>). Demand is rising as more families target schools and parks. Stock skews to family homes, with a few low-rise apartments near the village. The honest reality: competition is real, but value still appears if you apply fast and inspect midweek.</p>
