About North Isis

North Isis is a rural locality in the Bundaberg Region of Queensland, located approximately 6.6 kilometres north-northwest of Childers and 46 kilometres south-southwest of Bundaberg. Covering 73.8 square kilometres, it had a population of 566 at the 2021 census, with a predominantly older demographic (60+) and a very high owner-occupier rate of 87%. The area forms part of the Isis agricultural district, historically one of Queensland's most important sugar cane growing regions.

North Isis is a farming community where life revolves around the sugar cane industry, cattle grazing, and macadamia farming. Childers, a charming heritage town with shops, cafés, and essential services, serves as the local hub. The district is popular with retirees and farming families seeking affordable rural acreage in a warm climate. Bundaberg's larger amenities — including a hospital, major supermarkets, and the famous rum distillery — are under an hour away.
