Suburb profile
Wantiool is a residential smaller community in Junee with a familiar suburban feel. Set in the wider countryside, it offers distance from the capital and a strong sense of place. Families and commuters make up much of the community, with a strong presence of young families throughout.
Weekends tend to revolve around local favourites: a café, a market run, a walk through town. Reasonable public transport access helps with commuting and getting around locally.
Housing is well-priced for what you get: space, location and everyday convenience.
