Suburb profile

Ongerup is a residential smaller community in Gnowangerup with a familiar suburban feel. Far from the capital hubbub, it offers genuine distance, local character and room to live at a slower pace. A mature community gives the area a calm, settled social fabric, with families and grandchildren still a visible part of community life.

Homes offer solid value for the lifestyle on offer. Local identity runs deep. This is the kind of place people stay once they have found it.
