Question 1

Is South Innisfail a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

South Innisfail is the southern residential quarter of Innisfail, set on the Johnstone River floodplain amid sugarcane country and the edge of the Wet Tropics rainforest. It has a relaxed regional character where timber Queenslanders and low-set brick homes sit on generous, often shady blocks. Residents make the most of the river with boating and fishing, and there are riverfront parks, community sporting clubs and the town centre's shops and services within easy reach, with main road access via the Bruce Highway.

With about 508 people and a median age of 50, the community is small and largely owner-occupied (68.0% owner-occupied, 32.0% rented). Households earn around $1,007 a week on average, and the family mix is led by couple households both with and without children alongside retirees and people who work in local industries and farming. The nearest government secondary school is Innisfail State College to the north. Whether South Innisfail suits you will depend on the kind of regional, riverside lifestyle you want.

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in South Innisfail to publish reliable price and rent figures. Without those figures, it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live here compared with local household incomes recorded at the most recent Census.
