About Pimpama

Pimpama has exploded from rural land to a suburb of 24,500 residents in just years, located between Brisbane and the Gold Coast in the northern growth corridor. The M1 motorway provides access to both cities, while the Coomera train station serves the broader area. New estates continue to transform paddocks into family neighbourhoods at remarkable pace.

This is growth-area living at its most dynamicβ€”brand new homes, establishing schools, and a community being built from scratch. The population skews very young, with families and first-home buyers dominating. Pimpama attracts those seeking new construction at accessible prices, willing to trade established amenities for modern homes and the excitement of a forming community.

Pimpama falls under postcode 4209 and is governed by Gold Coast Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Coomera electorate.
