At a glance

Burpengary East the quieter, greener side of Burpengary ? more acreage blocks, more bushland, and a sense of separation from the highway corridor that the main suburb doesn't quite have. Forty kilometres north of the CBD, it's still within striking distance of the Burpengary station and the Morayfield shopping precinct, but you'd never know it from the peaceful streets. It's the kind of place where people have room for a boat, a trailer, or a vege garden ? a rare commodity in modern Brisbane.

Crime is 35% lower (break-ins vs QLD) and violent crime is 25% lower. Population of 5,965 (2021), growing +5%.
