Suburb profile
Hollisdale is a residential smaller community in Port Macquarie-Hastings with a familiar suburban feel. Distance from the capital is noticeable, but the trade-off is space, calm and a community that knows its neighbours. A mature community gives the area a calm, settled social fabric, with multiple generations sharing the same neighbourhood.
The town centre holds its own, with enough local flavour to make staying close to home appealing. Homes here are sought-after, with many people drawn to the lifestyle the area offers.
A trickle of new development is refreshing selected pockets without changing the overall feel.
