Suburb profile
Parnaroo is a residential smaller community in Peterborough with a familiar suburban feel. Out in the wider region, it rewards those who value open country and a pace set by the land, not the clock. The community skews younger.
Weekends tend to revolve around local favourites: a café, a market run, a walk through town. Local identity runs deep. This is the kind of place people stay once they have found it.
Homes are relatively affordable, which helps families and first-time residents put down roots.
