Renting in Chidlow
Chidlow runs roughly with the Western Australia state median — renters typically pay $367/week, close to the $337/week state baseline (ABS Census 2021). Most households here own (87% are owners or paying off a mortgage) and only 10% rent. Separate houses dominate the housing stock (100%), which gives the suburb a quieter, family-leaning feel — borne out by a median age of 39 and a population around 4,633. The most common occupation is Technicians and Trades Workers, and 21% of residents were born overseas.
