A happening locality, Toowong is a blend of family centric neighbourhoods and inner-city living.
Young families enjoy the peaceful streets of Toowong, which have amazing neighbours, parks on their doorstep and the ability to enjoy a gentle stroll to the West Toowong Bowls Club.
Tucked away in Vera Street, the community garden brings together locals of all ages, while Nowhere Espresso on Bent Street is the go-to spot for coffee. Around this area of west Toowong, residents enjoy larger blocks of land, leafy and quiet streets, and are greeted by other young families.
Families seek proximity to QASMT
The Queensland Academy for Science, Mathematics and Technology (QASMT) is another major drawcard for Toowong. Many families move to the area so their children can complete their higher school education at this prestigious academy.
Toowong State School, Brisbane Boys’ College, St Ignatius School and Stuartholme School are also highly regarded within the community of Toowong.
