About Helensvale
Helensvale is a major transport hub on the northern Gold Coast, home to nearly 19,000 residents where heavy rail meets the light rail network. Located 15 kilometres north of Surfers Paradise, it's evolved from semi-rural to a comprehensive suburban centre. Westfield Helensvale has transformed retail options in the area.
The suburb offers genuine Gold Coast accessibility—the transport interchange connects to Brisbane, the Coast, and soon the new stadium precinct. Modern estates and established areas provide varied housing options. Helensvale attracts commuters, families seeking transport convenience, and those who want Gold Coast lifestyle without being in the tourist zones.
Helensvale falls under postcode 4212 and is governed by Gold Coast Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Theodore electorate.
