In parts of Sydney, families occupy half the apartments and many value their convenient location. But despite a surge in development, most apartments are one or two bedrooms and not family-friendly.
Among our study participants, the birth of a new child did not lead to a detached car-dependent home. Instead, it triggered a search for a larger apartment in the town centre.
On balance, participants felt the CBD was the "best place" to live. Their priority was finding suitable high-rise homes within walking distance of schools, shops, public transport and community services — including libraries, health centres and parks.However, when we compared Liverpool CBD families' preferences with housing supply, we found an overproduction of one- and two-bedroom apartments.
