Collaroy, 4707

    What Collaroy is known for:

    Suburb profile

    Collaroy offers a slower smaller community life in Isaac Council, with open surrounds and a close-knit community feel. A mature community gives the area a calm, settled social fabric, with plenty of residents in steady employment. Everyday basics may be close by, but bigger shopping and services typically require a trip to a nearby centre.

    Local green pockets are modest, with bigger outdoor outings usually found in neighbouring areas. A car helps for most daily errands, with fewer amenities clustered within an easy walk. Property prices are middling for the area: fair relative to what is nearby.

    Crime trends have improved of late compared with the previous period. The streetscape feels settled and established, with older homes giving the area a familiar, lived-in look.
