Lower repayments, and rent against income

The median mortgage repayment in Bega is $1,325 a month, below $2,167 across NSW. Paying off a mortgage describes 25% of households, below the state's 33%, while 36% own their home outright, above 32% across NSW. That $1,325 is the middle repayment among households with a mortgage, so it describes them rather than the town as a whole.

Median household income is $1,134 a week, below $1,829 across NSW, and median rent is $318 a week, below $420. Worked out on this page from those two medians, the median weekly rent equals 28% of the median weekly income of all households in Bega, renters or not. The same working for NSW gives 23%, which puts the town of Bega above the state on this comparison.
