# Housing & Dwellings — Yowrie

Where and how people live — the homes, how they are held, and what they cost.

Area: Yowrie (Suburb / Locality)

A massive 72.7% of homes are owned outright in Yowrie, making it one of the most secure areas for homeowners. This high rate of ownership means very few people rent here. Most residents live in separate houses, though home sizes vary widely.

Typical monthly mortgage payments are far below the New South Wales figure at $1,300. Weekly rent is $325, which is higher than most similar areas but still a little below the national figure.

Separate houses make up 94.5% of the area, far above the New South Wales average. While homes with three or more bedrooms are far below the national figure, there are 1.00 people per bedroom, which is well above the Australian average.

Only 5.5% of households rent, a figure far below both the state and national averages. This is consistent with the fact that nearly three-quarters of homes are owned outright.
