A massive 91% of homes in Wyndham have three or more bedrooms, far above the national figure of 73.8%. This makes it an area dominated by larger family houses rather than apartments. While home sizes are large, the typical costs for mortgages and rent are about the same as those found across Victoria and Australia.
