It is centrally located between Lake Macquarie to the west and coastal beaches to the east, mixing the commercial environment with a relaxed coastal atmosphere.


Population consists of an even mix of young families and retirees. Families are drawn to the area by the coastal lifestyle and multiple leisure opportunities. Average income is higher than average for the region, rent rental costs are moderate.
