Average taxable income in Rockdale is a useful but imperfect demand signal. It reflects who lives there now, not who will live there in five years. If the average taxable income has been rising faster than the Bayside LGA average over recent ATO releases, it may signal income-driven gentrification, with wealthier residents displacing lower-income ones, which has historically been associated with above-average capital growth in Sydney.
