Se gli Heeler si trasferissero a ovest, dove avrebbero potuto permettersi di vivere?

Perth man Lucas Shawn Cameron, 22, appeared in court on Friday charged with preparing a terrorist attack. The accused, who has a beard, attended the hearing via video link from custody. Magistrate Ben Tyers asked Cameron if he understood the charge, and the defendant confirmed he did. Police allege that Cameron obtained explosives while planning the act. The case involves allegations of extensive online research and communication regarding attack methods. Cameron faces three current charges. These include doing an act in preparation for a terrorist act, possessing violent extremist material, and accessing violent extremist material. He was previously facing multiple terrorism related counts, but three of those specific charges have been discontinued. Federal police initially arrested Cameron after raiding his residence in the northern Perth suburb of Westminster. During the search, officers seized two computers and one mobile phone. Details concerning the specifics of the alleged plot remain unknown at this stage. According to court evidence, Cameron allegedly conducted online research during November and December of last year. He reportedly engaged in conversations about various attack methods. Police stated that he sought assistance on a messaging platform. This help concerned explosive devices, military and tactical training, education, weapons manufacturing, combat techniques, and fake documents. Authorities claim these actions were part of the planning process for a terrorist attack. A machete was also obtained by Cameron during this period, according to the court. His next scheduled appearance is set for November 11. He will return to Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court for further proceedings. The initial arrest followed the federal police raid on his home in Westminster. The seizure of digital devices suggests investigators are examining electronic communications and stored files. The discontinuation of three prior charges indicates a refinement of the legal case against him, though the core accusation of preparing for violence stands. Separate from the criminal proceedings, local media attention has turned to housing affordability in Western Australia. An analysis published on October 30 examined where the fictional Heeler family from the television show Bluey could afford to live if they moved to Perth. In a 2024 episode, the Heelers considered moving from their three bedroom Queenslander home in Brisbane to the west. The analysis assumed a move to Perth in 2024. Bandit, an archaeologist, and Chilli, a part time airport security worker, would have a combined annual income of approximately $165,000. Using a common affordability threshold of 30 percent of take home pay, the study calculated that the family could afford a sale price of $760,000 or a weekly rental of $952. Data from realestate.com.au showed that among 302 suburbs with available information in 2024, the family could purchase a three bedroom home in 149 suburbs. If they chose to rent, 276 suburbs would be within their budget. Most of these properties would not match the iconic Queenslander style or the four bathroom configuration associated with the character's home. If the family had delayed their move until 2026, their financial position would have shifted slightly upward due to income growth. They could potentially afford a property valued at $800,000 or rent costing $1,154 per week. However, housing costs rose sharply over that two year period. Of the 149 suburbs that were affordable for purchase in 2024, 99 became unaffordable by 2026. This left only 50 suburbs where the family could still buy a home. Geographically, the Heelers would be priced out of areas ranging from Yangebup to Rockingham. Only 20 affordable suburbs remained north of the river, while 30 remained to the south. Given the location of Perth’s airports, the analysis suggested the family would likely choose from the southern options. The presence of two dependent children, Bluey and Bingo, would further reduce borrowing capacity, making the situation more difficult. The analysis notes that many real families face similar pressures, forcing them into long term renting. Housing affordability remains a key policy goal for successive governments. Recent changes in Western Australia include bans on rent bidding and limits on rent increases. New South Wales and Victoria have implemented stricter reforms that restrict landlords from ending tenancies without specified grounds. Western Australia has announced similar measures, but these reforms have not yet been legislated or put into effect. The contrast between the fictional family's plight and real world data highlights the tightening housing market in the region.
