Answer this Question

We asked people how much they someone comfortably live on in Noosa, they wrote...

"The cost of living in Noosa is considered to be relatively high compared to other parts of the country. This is largely due to its popularity as a tourist destination and the high demand for property in the area. Housing is the biggest expense, with both rental and purchase prices significantly higher than the national average. Groceries and dining out in Noosa can also be more expensive than in other parts of Australia, due to the high-quality local produce and the abundance of upscale restaurants. However, there are also plenty of more affordable dining options available. Transportation costs in Noosa are relatively low, especially if you own a car, as the area is not very large and most places are within a short driving distance. Public transportation is also available and is reasonably priced. Healthcare in Noosa is on par with the rest of Australia, with a mix of public and private healthcare services available. The cost of these services can vary depending on whether you have private health insurance. Overall, while the cost of living in Noosa is higher than in many other parts of Australia, many residents feel that the high quality of life, beautiful surroundings, and warm climate make it worth the extra expense," said a member in Noosa, Australia.
