Best place for kids
"Growing Suburb"
Been in Yarrabilba for almost 4 years, owner occupier for 1 year. People complain about lot sizes being small, but coming from the UK I've lived on smaller.
There's plenty of parks and walking areas and most of the area is kept clean. Not much for teens to do at present, which may change as the suburb develops. Could do with more supermarkets which again will hopefully come over time. What we don't have here is only a short drive away. Most places can be reached within 25 mins to an hour. Overall we love living here as the community is great and there's always someone willing to lend a hand. Bad points.. some drivers think Yarrabilba is a race track especially the tradies who work here. Overall it's an 8 out of 10 from me.

"Lovely community, great place to live!"
I’ve been living in Yarrabilba for 2 years now and love everything about it. The community are great, everything that I need is here and a lot more coming. This place is growing so fast!
Such a great place for a growing family with schools, medical, cafes, parks and shops.

"Nice enough - Families Everywhere"
Having lived here for 3 months i can only give a relatively short review .
Have now edited my review based on 5 years there and now moved on .
It did what it needed to do for us .
The state school was terrible along with the state high school
Moved the kids to kings and it was a game changer .
The major flaws are all the hooning , no decent shops and you need to go to hyperdome or brown plains.
Prices have increased dramatically which is good for investors but if buying and living in it I would probably look elsewhere as you need a car to do almost everything .
The area is growing and the local government are spending money out there which is good .
We had great neighbours and for the most part a good time it was just the lack of shops , decent restaurants and things to do that made us move .
Also about an hour to Brisbane and Gold Coast - don’t let the real estate fool you . I commented both ways for years

Great to hear you like your neighbours and overall in a short period of time, are enjoying the area.
Have you been to the mingle markets yet?

Hi great review. Would you recommend this for an investor? I would like to have a base in Queensland as as as Melbourne
"Cheep sardine can homes"
Standard far-outer suburb services and recreation.
Very very cheaply built homes packed tightly on very very small blocks in the middle of nowhere. Created by very very greedy developers, duping very very naive young familys or first home buyers, into making a very very poor investment.
Hi Jack - did you buy here and regret it?

Hey Jack. You able to provide me any more info please?

It's a hovel. Does not have to be, but it is. Thanks to the rough, dirty, very rude and uncultured inhabitants. I mean really, just look around, the place is an absolute mess. Rubbish on the ground everywhere. Road raging bogans doing burnouts every weekend. Teen mothers telling their kids how they wish they'd not been born. It's an absolute trash pile of a suburb.
I bought here in august in 2022 and love it. Obviously you didnt do your research before buying them?
"the turning point of Yarrabilba"
I Have lived in Yarrabilba for 3 years and have never had any problems i know their is a bit of crap where ever you live, Yarrailba has great parks bush areas dog parks ect and now we have the police station open and more infrastructure i think yarrabilba is at the turning point. it is a good investment and nice place to live.

"Great Parks and Community Feel"
Have found the place to be very pleasant. Parks are great and with everyday there seems to be new infrastructure. It now has a full bus service so transport is improving. The people are very friendly and the community has a great feel to it.

"A Good Investment"
I recently purchased in Yarrabilba, and so far have found it quite pleasant. I was concerned with some of the reviews with the break-ins, and I won't lie that it does make me feel uneasy, however I have never had an issue (touch-wood) and love the parks, environment and bushland. In regards to community, I have found the people not overly-friendly, but time may change that. I think the potential of house prices increasing when the town centre being built was the main incentive. Plus there is nothing like a brand new house! Its also very quite and close to the Gold Coast!

"Crime rate..."
Never lived any where in my life with so many break ins.. had people breaking into my neighbors homes 3 times in one month... and unfortunately had someone in my back yard earlier this week.. one positive is that the parks here are amazing .
"Disappointing. Dirty. Foul mouthed people."
Rude children with foul mouth language. Car got keyed at playground. Went to a children's party there do not intend to return. We went out on opening and few times since and it was lovely but not anymore. Dirty and covered in filth. Very disappointing to ruin that part of our area by putting in low income housing bringing in the riff raff. Of course it has brought in nice people too (my apologies to them) but the majority of nasty people over rules the good. Check the crime rate out there via google. Not good.
Spot on.
Do not live in Yarrabilba.

Sure is lived there for 7 months couldn't get out quick enough
