About Julago

Julago is a rural locality within the City of Townsville in North Queensland, located approximately 16.6 kilometres south-southeast of Townsville CBD. With a population of 384 at the 2021 Census, the area sits amid the gently undulating terrain between Townsville and the Burdekin lowlands, offering a semi-rural lifestyle within commuting distance of one of North Queensland's largest cities. Julago has attracted attention as the planned site of a significant masterplanned residential development that is expected to substantially grow the community in coming years.

Currently characterised by acreage lots, hobby farms, and rural residential blocks, Julago appeals to families and lifestyle seekers who want space and a quieter pace without straying far from Townsville's services and employment. The nearby suburbs of Stuart and Alligator Creek offer a sense of the broader outer-Townsville community. With the masterplanned development on the horizon, Julago is on the cusp of transforming from a quiet rural locality into a significant growth corridor for the Townsville region.

Julago falls under postcode 4816 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Traeger electorate.
