Suburb profile

Koorine is a welcoming smaller community in Wattle Range, with a settled community character. Set in the wider countryside, it offers distance from the capital and a strong sense of place. Working households and growing families are the backbone of local life, with a strong presence of young families throughout.

Weekends tend to revolve around local favourites: a café, a market run, a walk through town. There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch.

Housing remains accessible compared with many parts of the state.
