Suburb profile
Set among the hills of Wollondilly Council, Tahmoor is a mid-sized suburb with bushland views and a cooler, leafier feel. Families and commuters make up much of the community, with plenty of young families in the mix. Neighbourhood food and coffee spots add warmth to the local routine.
Parks and open space are a real strength relative to many regional towns, easy for walks, sport and weekend downtime. Daily life works well on foot, with buses and trains also serving the suburb. Property sits in a premium price band and is harder to enter for many buyers.
Reported crime has been rising recently. Active development is adding new homes and refreshed pockets throughout the suburb.
Growth momentum, plus community and employment push the suburb to a good desirability read, even as schools and education look more ordinary among similar regional towns.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).
IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.
IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.
A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
