ClimateNest uses BOM, CSIRO, and state government hazard data to provide actionable climate risk intelligence for Australian property buyers, owners, and investors.

Penfield Gardens (postcode 5121) is tracked in ClimateNest's suburb hazard model, which maps the share of the suburb's land exposed to each hazard at high and moderate levels.
