Primary development of Mullaloo began in the 1950s, but it wasn’t until the late 1970s and 1980s that the coastal suburb would experience substantial growth. Mullaloo’s population has declined slightly since the mid 1990s, the result of little change in property stock.
A suburban lifestyle close to the beach awaits residents in Mullaloo. The relaxed suburb has a surf life saving club, two primary schools and plenty of open park space to explore. Mullaloo Plaza shopping centre services the immediate shopping and amenity requirements of locals, while Mullaloo Beach Hotel is a social fixture of the suburb featuring a restaurant and bar.
