Suburb profile
Taloumbi is a welcoming smaller community in Clarence Valley, with a settled community character. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. The area suits established families and long-term locals, with a strong presence of young families throughout.
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.
