About Verrierdale

Verrierdale is a tranquil rural locality in the Sunshine Coast Region of Queensland, situated approximately 30 kilometres northwest of Maroochydore and 137 kilometres north of Brisbane. With a population of 809 residents spread across nearly 30 square kilometres, the area maintains a low-density, semi-rural character set against the hinterland backdrop north of Eumundi. The locality falls within the Sunshine Coast Regional Council and the state electorate of Ninderry, reflecting its position in the vibrant Noosa hinterland zone. Neighbours include the market town of Eumundi and coastal areas of the Sunshine Coast.

Verrierdale attracts residents who seek the serenity of hinterland living without straying far from the coast and its amenities. The Sunshine Coast's beaches, markets, and lifestyle precinct at Noosa are within 30–40 minutes' drive, while the iconic Eumundi Markets are just a short trip away. The community tends to value sustainability, outdoor lifestyles, and the natural environment, with acreage properties and hobby farms common in the area. A lower median income reflects the lifestyle-focused demographic who trade commuter convenience for space, nature, and the relaxed pace of Sunshine Coast hinterland life.

Verrierdale falls under postcode 4562 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Noosa electorate.
