Suburb profile
Mitchellville is a welcoming smaller community in Franklin Harbour, with a settled community character. Distance from the capital is noticeable, but the trade-off is space, calm and a community that knows its neighbours. The community skews younger, 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 is well-priced for what you get: space, location and everyday convenience.
