Milba, located within the Halls Creek region of Western Australia, presents a unique and evolving housing market landscape. Traditionally characterized by its remote and rural setting, the housing market here has seen gradual changes influenced by regional development projects and a growing interest in the vast natural surroundings. The area predominantly offers standalone houses, often with expansive land, reflecting the rural nature of the region. Prices in Milba tend to be more affordable compared to urban centers, attracting those seeking tranquility and a close-knit community lifestyle. However, the remote location also means that the housing market is less liquid, with properties often spending more time on the market compared to more populated areas.
Living in Milba brings with it the charms and challenges typical of outback West Australian life. Residents enjoy the benefits of open spaces and a strong sense of community, where interactions are personal and neighbors often become close friends. The area is rich with natural beauty, offering numerous opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking and exploring the rugged landscapes. However, the remoteness of Milba also means that access to certain amenities and services is limited, with residents often needing to travel to Halls Creek or further to larger towns for shopping, healthcare, and entertainment options. The lifestyle here is slower-paced and well-suited for individuals or families looking to immerse themselves in the serene and culturally rich environment that the outback provides.

In this area of average incomes, there is a mix of housing size and quality. While this may present buying opportunities, growth may be constrained. As buyers begin to examine Milba due to other areas being out of the price range and the trend to working from home, "gentrification" may incease price growth. Low average earnings from people in Milba leads to lower quality housing which also negatively impacts the provision of facilities. As a consequence this area is often seen as less desirable, with lower quality of housing and slower price growth. Low population density implies low demand and limits housing choices and price increases. Could be a good entry point for first home buyers needing to somehow get into the market. Higher than average industry presence in the wider area offering local employment yet with not a large negative impact on local amenity, provides good demand and price growth.
