Nundah sits in Brisbane’s inner north around Nundah Village, a lively strip of cafes, bakeries, pubs and independent shops that gives the area a strong neighbourhood feel. Streets mix timber Queenslanders and weatherboard cottages with newer low and medium density apartment blocks, making the suburb popular with young professionals, families and downsizers. Green pockets and local parks add outdoor space, and Nundah train station plus nearby major roads make trips into the city and to the airport straightforward.

About 13,098 people live in Nundah and the median age is 35; the typical household earns $1,769 a week, roughly $92,000 a year. Families are dominated by couples, and homes are more often rented than owner-occupied, with 56.0% rented and owner-occupiers around 43.9%. The suburb is also the subject of recent City Plan and precinct planning, with a new master plan being prepared for the former Toombul site and a Kedron Brook vision under way with engagement materials publicly available.

On the figures, housing in Nundah sits well above what a typical local household earned at the last Census. A median house price of $1,362,500 is about 14.8 times a typical local annual household income at the last Census, and the median unit price of $816,250 is about 8.9 times that annual income.

Renting also takes a sizeable to large share of local incomes at the last Census: the average house rent of $750 a week would be about 42.4% of a typical local household's weekly income, and the average unit rent of $625 a week would be about 35.3%. Which of these matters most depends on whether you plan to rent or buy.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.

Over the past 12 months Nundah recorded large increases in property values: median house values rose 27.5% and median unit values rose 21.5%, which are substantial moves in capital growth. Rental growth was more modest by comparison, with house rents up 7.1% and unit rents up 7.8% — solid gains for income but noticeably smaller than the value rises. Houses led the value gains while units edged ahead slightly on rent growth.

If capital growth is your priority, the value figures are the most relevant; if rental income matters more, pay attention to the rent movements. Whether that balance fits your goals and circumstances is for you to judge.
