  • The headline growth figure uses a repeat-sales index of all dwellings (the same homes resold), which removes mix-of-what-sold noise; the tiles compare 12-month medians per dwelling type, so the two can differ, and differ widely where what sold changed.
  • Unit medians are yearly because strata volumes are low; treat them as indicative.
  • Quarters with fewer than three house sales are left off the chart; one sale does not make a market median.

  • A street needs at least 5 sales of a type in 10 years to get a median, so streets quieter than that are left out entirely.
  • Sales that moved several properties on one dealing are left out, because the record repeats that dealing's whole price against every property in it.
  • The highlight cards rank on house sales only, using each street's last-5-years median (at least 5 sales in that window), so unit-heavy streets are not mislabelled as cheap and the figures reflect prices a buyer could pay now; the table shows the full 10-year view.
  • A street is left out of the ranking when its five-year median sits below three-fifths of its own 10-year median, or far below the suburb's median (a bar set higher for streets with no older sales of their own to stand behind them). Those windows are usually land sold before the houses went up, or a part share of a home priced as though it were the whole. Those streets stay in the table with their 10-year median.
  • Prices are as-paid and not inflation-adjusted.

  • Figures labelled Warialda are for the suburb boundary itself (ABS 2021 Census). Anything labelled SA2 or postcode covers a wider area: SA2 "Inverell Surrounds - West" and postcode 2402 both extend beyond Warialda.
  • SEIFA decile 1 is the lowest tenth of Australian areas on that index and 10 the highest. The four indices measure different things and often disagree, which is why all four are shown: a suburb can rank high on education and occupation while ranking mid on economic resources.

  • ICSEA is ACARA's socio-educational index (average 1000). It describes the family backgrounds of the students enrolled, NOT how well a school teaches: a lower ICSEA means a less advantaged intake, not a worse school.
  • Percentiles are ACARA's own national ranking, so the Australia bar is a published figure rather than our arithmetic. Each area shows the median of the mainstream schools sitting inside it; special schools are listed in the table but excluded from the medians.
  • Catchments are NSW Department of Education intake zones; always confirm an address with the school.

  • Counts are BOCSAR recorded incidents for January 2025 to December 2025 at LGA and postcode grain: both cover several suburbs, so they include neighbours of Warialda.
  • Rates divide incidents by resident population (ABS 2021 Census), so they are comparable between areas in a way raw counts are not. Every tier uses the same offences and the same 12 months for January 2025 to December 2025.
  • Two limits worth knowing: the rate counts residents only, so a postcode with a town centre, nightlife strip or shopping precinct carries crime generated by visitors against a small resident denominator and reads high; and the population is the 2021 Census, so a suburb that has grown fast since then reads high too.
