In 2017 its houses were the fastest selling in Australia, which was attributed to reasonable prices, and a good range of services.
History.
The first European to visit the area was botanist Robert Brown in 1804, and the area was later settled by the Lucas family. It was predominantly an agricultural area until the late 1960s when bushfires, changes in the export market and the completion of the Southern Outlet road to Hobart caused urbanisation and growth.
