Bombay, situated within the Queanbeyan-Palerang Regional area of New South Wales, is a locality that offers a unique blend of rural charm and accessibility to urban amenities. The housing market in this region is characterized by a diverse range of properties, from traditional homesteads and spacious plots to modern developments. Due to its picturesque setting, demand for homes often comes from those looking to escape the bustle of nearby Canberra, just a short drive away, providing a serene retreat without being too isolated. The market here has seen steady interest due in part to the area's natural beauty and the appeal of a quieter lifestyle, coupled with an increase in the work-from-home trend which has made rural living more accessible.
Living in Bombay offers residents a peaceful, countryside lifestyle with the convenience of proximity to larger towns and cities. The community is tight-knit, with a focus on outdoor activities, thanks to the area's lush landscapes and recreational spots like the nearby Monga National Park. It's an ideal location for families or individuals who appreciate a slower pace of life, yet still want access to good infrastructure and services. While amenities within Bombay itself are limited, the neighboring towns provide additional facilities, shopping, and dining options, ensuring that residents enjoy the best of both rural and urban advantages. This blend of tranquility and convenience makes Bombay a desirable place for those seeking a balanced lifestyle.

In Bombay there has been a history of lower than average prices and demand, offering opportunities for investors or first home owners, especially in the context of the growth in working from home. Low average incomes in Bombay is reflected in smaller and lower quality accommodation. Over time this may change providsing long-term returns but in the short to medium term, prices are likely to be less than state averages. The slightly lower than average earnings from occupations in Bombay changes the housing and lifestyle preference. It is more a matter of what can be afforded rather than what would we prefer, leading to slower price increases over time. Low population density implies low demand and limits housing choices and price increases. Could be a good entry point for first home buyers needing to somehow get into the market. With very low industrial sector presence in Bombay the focus is on lifestyle, driving specific demand around facilities, services, and open space. Most people are employed in service sectors with a higher than average proportion being able to work from home. This may incease demand over the medium term.
