All Topics / General Property / Katanning, WA.
Does anyone have any info on Katanning, I think it has a population of around 4,000 and is located apparently with easy access to Perth, Albany, and Bunbury. Anyone have property or looked at the place before?
Cheers

Katanning’s population has been dropping for about the last 30+ years. It’s mainly dependent on wool.
‘easy access to Perth, Albany and Bunbury’ means a pleasant 2-3 hr drive, but certainly not daily commuting distance.
There’s nothing special I can think about the place, so unless you can get an exceptional deal, I would look to places with better prospects.

Hi WAF,
Katanning has a declining population with one of the schools recently classified down due to lower student numbers. There used to be a largish muslim community there employed in a Halal abbatoir (?) – not sure of the state of play otherwsie but many WA country towns are suffering from a rural decline.
