In Wandong 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. Incomes in Wandong are above average indicating a preference for good quality housing and lifestyle. That ensures consistent price growth. The high percentage of professional people in Wandong classifies the area as "gentrified". This implies high demand for quality housing, generally of larger than average size. Price growth is ensured even where the state affordability index is negatively impacting other areas. Medium density in Wandong necessitates a mix of lifestyle options for housing, shops, open areas, and facilties. Where this is available, demand is high and growth ensured.
