Suburb profile

Mooball is a welcoming smaller community in Tweed, with a settled community character. Life revolves around the local community, with the wider region offering trips and services when needed. Residents are mostly families and working professionals, with plenty of young families in the mix.

Public transport is a genuine asset, linking residents to work, study and nearby neighbourhoods. Housing carries a premium, but residents tend to feel the lifestyle justifies the commitment.

Light infill development is updating a few streets while the wider area stays largely unchanged.
