About Hoya
Hoya is a peaceful rural locality situated in the Scenic Rim Region of South-East Queensland, lying approximately 80 kilometres south-west of Brisbane. Covering around 8 square kilometres of productive farming land at roughly 150 metres above sea level, the locality recorded a population of 251 residents in the 2021 census. The Boonah-Fassifern Road (State Route 90) runs along the southern boundary, providing a key connection to the nearby town of Boonah and the wider Scenic Rim. The locality forms part of the peri-urban fringe attracting tree-changers and acreage buyers seeking rural character within reach of the South-East Queensland corridor.
Hoya's landscape is characterised by mixed farming, hobby farms, and larger rural residential lots set against the scenic backdrop of the Scenic Rim ranges. The neighbouring town of Boonah (approximately 10km) provides primary schools, supermarkets, cafes, medical services, and community facilities. The locality has seen growing interest from buyers priced out of the Scenic Rim's more popular towns, drawn by its relative affordability and rural lifestyle appeal. Residents enjoy easy access to the natural attractions of the Main Range National Park and Teviot Falls, making it popular with nature enthusiasts and outdoor recreationists.
Hoya falls under postcode 4310 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Scenic Rim electorate.
