Residents in the Armidale region will be asked what makes the region a great place to live, study, work, and visit as part of a new liveability study.
Armidale Regional Council (ARC) is participating in the 2025 Armidale Regional Liveability Survey, joining over 80,000 people across Australia who have shared their views in previous studies.
ARC Mayor Sam Coupland said the insights residents share will be used to inform local strategic planning and prioritise community ideas.
“By participating, residents will play an important role in shaping the future of the community and influencing planning and investment decisions that improve the quality of life for everyone in our region,” said Sam Coupland.
“This liveability study is an important opportunity for residents to share what makes Armidale such a special place to live, work, and visit.”
“By understanding what matters most to the community, we can continue to build a vibrant and thriving region not only for our current residents but for people who are looking to move to our fabulous area.”
“By listening to the community, we can ensure that our future growth aligns with what people and Council truly values.”
ARC is committed to long-term planning that enhances the liveability of its region and promotes the wellbeing of all residents.
“Your voice is needed, whether you’re a long-time resident, a student, or a visitor to the region – everyone’s input matters,” said Mayor Coupland.
