Suburb profile
Winnindoo is a welcoming smaller community in Wellington, with a settled community character. The community is self-contained in the best sense. Local life comes first, with the region opening up beyond. Residents are mostly families and working professionals, with plenty of young families in the mix.
Local identity runs deep. This is the kind of place people stay once they have found it. Housing is well-priced for what you get: space, location and everyday convenience.
