There are 346 heritage-listed sites on record, and the dominant land-use zone is Primary Production. The median lot measures about 777 m² across 19,522 parcels. These figures are suburb-wide - the overlays that actually apply to a given lot can differ block to block, which is what a property-level check tells you.
