Profile

Located approximately 14 kilometres south-west of the Brisbane CBD, Jamboree Heights is an integral part of a largely successful land development that commenced in 1959 with Jindalee and includes Mt. Ommaney, Middle Park, Riverhills, Westlake and Sinnamon Park. Originally known as the ‘Centenary Project’, the area is now more commonly referred to as the Centenary suburbs.

The majority of the original housing in Jamboree Heights was constructed during the late 1970s and early 1980s. It is one of the oldest parts of the Centenary suburbs region.

The subsequent construction of new up-market dwellings and demand for housing in the area is likely to increase the overall value of property in the suburb in the future.

Jamboree Heights is a popular suburb for growing families as the area offers a wide range of services and facilities for all family members within close vicinity.

The Centenary suburbs are promoted as a fully planned development with extensive services and facilities including primary and high schools, the recently expanded Centenary regional shopping centre, police and fire stations and many sporting clubs including two golf courses.

The REIQ expects demand for Jamboree Heights property to remain fairly consistent in future years.

According to the 2006 Census there were 3,279 people living in the suburb with a median age of 35. The median individual income was $546 per week. Of all occupied private dwellings 72.5% were either fully owned or being purchased; 23.6% were being rented.
