Suburb profile
Life in Condingup revolves around the coast, with the feel of a smaller community that never strays far from the water. Remote from the metro area in the best sense: quiet streets, big skies and a town that runs on its own timetable. There is a lightness to the air here, with the coast never far from mind.
Families and commuters make up much of the community, with family life visible on every street. Homes offer solid value for the lifestyle on offer.
The streetscape feels settled and established, with older homes giving the area a familiar, lived-in look.
The desirability score is below average, weighed down by weaker local dining and lifestyle amenities and transport and access against similar coastal suburbs, even with safety holding up better. Limited access to some essential local services also trimmed the result.
