About Durack
Welcome to Durack
Durack sits around 14 kilometres south-west of the Brisbane CBD, tucked between Inala, Oxley, Doolandella, Richlands and Willawong in the city's growing south-western corridor. It's a quiet, family-oriented pocket of Brisbane that has traditionally flown under the radar, built largely around post-war and 1970s-80s brick homes on generous blocks.
With a population of around 7,788 and a median age of 39, Durack has long been a settled, multicultural community rather than a trendy hotspot — but that's exactly the appeal for buyers and renters chasing space, affordability relative to inner Brisbane, and a genuine neighbourhood feel.
Lifestyle & dining
Durack is not a suburb built around a buzzing café strip, and that's part of its character — daily life here revolves around home, backyard and local community rather than a main street scene. For dining out, cafés, and bigger shopping fixes, residents typically head next door to Inala, which has long served as the area's commercial hub, or further afield into Brisbane's south-western suburbs.
The pace suits people who want a quieter base with easy access to the city rather than a lifestyle built around nightlife or dining precincts. Families and long-term residents make up much of the community, and the suburb's parks and open spaces tend to be where local life happens on weekends.
Shopping
Everyday shopping needs are well covered through nearby Inala Plaza and the broader Inala shopping precinct, which has historically served as the retail heart for this part of Brisbane's south-west, offering supermarkets, specialty stores and services within a short drive. Richlands and Doolandella also provide additional retail options as this corridor continues to develop.
For bigger shopping trips, Brisbane's south-western suburbs and the wider Ipswich Road corridor give residents access to larger centres without too long a drive.
Getting around
Durack's location around 14 kilometres from the CBD makes commuting straightforward for a middle-ring suburb. The Centenary Motorway and Ipswich Motorway both provide arterial access into the city and out towards Ipswich, while local roads connect efficiently through to Oxley and Richlands.
Public transport users have Richlands train station on the Springfield line within reach, along with bus services connecting through Inala and surrounding suburbs, giving residents without a car a workable link into central Brisbane and neighbouring employment hubs.
Schools & families
Families are well served locally, with Durack State School providing primary education within the suburb itself, and Glenala State High School covering secondary schooling nearby. The Australian International Islamic College also has a presence in the area, offering an independent schooling option and reflecting the suburb's multicultural makeup.
With a median age of 39 and a strong base of established households, Durack tends to attract families and multi-generational households looking for larger blocks and more affordable housing than closer-in suburbs offer.
Housing & architecture
The current mix of listings in Durack shows houses still dominate, making up 56% of the market, followed by townhouses at 25%, apartments and units at 15%, and a small remainder of other dwelling types. Much of the housing stock reflects the suburb's post-war and 1970s-80s development era — solid brick and timber homes on generously sized blocks, many with room for extension or renewal.
This mix gives buyers a genuine choice between classic standalone houses with backyard space and newer, lower-maintenance townhouse options, making Durack relevant to both traditional home buyers and those seeking something more compact.
The property market
Durack's property market has moved solidly in recent times, with median house prices sitting at $883,000 after growth of 26.5% — a significant jump that reflects the broader demand pushing into Brisbane's more affordable middle-ring suburbs. Units and townhouses offer a lower entry point, with a median of $693,000, giving buyers priced out of houses a path into the area.
Renters looking at Durack face a median rent of $600 per week, positioning the suburb as accessible relative to inner Brisbane while still offering proximity to the CBD, motorway access and established schools. With neighbouring suburbs like Richlands and Doolandella also seeing growth and development, Durack's fortunes look tied to the broader momentum building across this south-western corridor.
