About Heathwood
Heathwood is a modern residential suburb in Brisbane's southern corridor, located approximately 20 kilometres south of the Brisbane CBD within the Brisbane City Council area. With a population of 4,944 and a median age of just 32, it is a youthful, growing community attracting young families and working professionals. The suburb's median household income of around $2,500 per week sits well above national benchmarks, reflecting the skilled workforce drawn to this part of south-east Queensland.
Heathwood is one of Brisbane's more culturally diverse suburbs, with significant Indian, Vietnamese, and Chinese communities alongside Anglo-Australian residents — the majority of the population has parents born overseas. Predominantly residential with modern housing estates, the suburb benefits from easy access to the Logan Motorway and proximity to the Acacia Ridge and Archerfield employment precincts. Families are well catered for with local schools, and the broad range of amenities along the nearby Beaudesert Road corridor adds to everyday convenience.
