Strathtay sits along the river of the same name, a scatter of stone houses and farm buildings strung between Pitlochry and Aberfeldy rather than gathered into anything you'd call a centre. There's no high street to speak of — this is Perthshire glen country, the kind of place where the view does the work a shop front would do elsewhere, and where the people you see are more likely walking a dog or unloading a boot of shopping than browsing. I can't responsibly pull together the usual picture of schools, commuting and house prices for you here — that detail simply hasn't come through for Strathtay specifically. What I can say is that Scotland's own averages give you a backdrop: a median age across the country of around 43, and an employment rate a touch under 60%, with roughly a third of people nationally working in managerial or professional roles. Strathtay, being a small rural village, will likely skew older and quieter than those national figures suggest, but that's a general pattern for glens like this one rather than something the data confirms for this exact place. What I'd say honestly is this: if you're drawn to Strathtay, you already know why — the river, the hills, the distance from anything resembling traffic. The practical questions, about which school your children would attend, what a cottage here actually costs, how you'd get to Perth or Dundee for work, are the ones you'd want to settle by visiting, calling the local school directly, and speaking to an agent who knows this stretch of glen rather than relying on averages pulled from Edinburgh or Glasgow. A place this small often runs on detail that never makes it into any dataset.
