Separate houses make up the vast majority of occupied dwellings, with a small share of townhouses and flats reflecting the suburb’s low-rise coastal fabric.

Local buses link Tramway Road to Terrigal, Erina Fair and Gosford Station, with route 67 operating daily and additional loop services via Avoca Beach and Copacabana.
