Suburb profile
Dyraaba is a welcoming smaller community in Kyogle, with a settled community character. Life revolves around the local community, with the wider region offering trips and services when needed. Retirees and empty-nesters are well represented here, with families and grandchildren still a visible part of community life.
Homes are relatively affordable, which helps families and first-time residents put down roots. There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch.
Light infill development is updating a few streets while the wider area stays largely unchanged.
