Average rent in Burpengary, QLD — 2026

Burpengary sits close to the Queensland median, with renters typically paying $350/week — within striking distance of the state-wide $359/week baseline (ABS Census 2021). The suburb is largely owner-occupied: 67% of households own outright or with a mortgage, and only 30% rent. Housing stock is dominated by separate houses (84%), giving the suburb a settled, family-oriented character that's reflected in the median age of 36 and a population of around 16,488. The most common occupation is Technicians and Trades Workers, and 16% of residents were born overseas. 36km from Brisbane, Burpengary is the kind of mid-market suburb that usually sees stable rent trajectories rather than rapid spikes — though state rent indices since 2021 are worth checking against your reported figure above.
