Question 1

Is Benaraby a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Benaraby is a semi-rural town on the Bruce Highway near Lake Awoonga and the Boyne River, centred on a low-key main street.

Residents have incomes above the Queensland median and many households are buying their homes, with couples with children making up 48.0% of families. Local shops and community facilities cover everyday needs, outdoor recreation on the local waterways regularly includes fishing, boating and birdwatching, and the Bruce Highway provides straightforward road access to Gladstone and other regional centres; bridge upgrades on the Gin Gin–Benaraby corridor have been completed, improving the structural integrity of both bridges so they better accommodate heavy vehicles.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Benaraby?
