There is always a lot of attention on Sydney and Melbourne’s affluent areas and property markets, but what about the wealthy Australians in Brisbane?
Where do they live?
Brisbane’s property market were very resilient during the challenges of 2020 and now Brisbane housing values are going gangbusters.
The recent increase has pushed dwelling values to a new record high for the area.
With median prices in Brisbane, at around $520,00, being far less than those in Sydney or Melbourne the ‘affordability factor’ of lower property prices is driving more investment into the area and more interest from highest-earners who are able to get more bang for their buck.
Unfortunately Queensland postcodes didn’t feature on the ATO’s recent top 10 suburb rich list, but there is an abundance of wealthy residents and high priced properties, so with the help of realestate.com.au, Domain Group and census data, I’ve put together my own list of exclusive areas where Brisbane’s richest call home and then I’ll reveal the top 10 Brisbane streets.
4005 (Teneriffe, Inner Brisbane)
Population: 5,341
Median income: $127,972
Median house price: $1.962 million
According to Corelogic data, the Inner Brisbane suburb of Teneriffe has the highest median house price of any area across the Queensland capital.
Despite being an industrial town in the past, the proximity to the city and riverside views has made it ideal for affluent, young Australians with average ages of just 20-39 and median annual incomes of $127,972.
With few houses in this inner city location, the median house price comes in at a whopping $1,962 million.
However, even units in Teneriffe are more expensive than the rest of Brisbane with a median of $570,000.
4155 (Chandler)
Population: 1,453
Median income: $128,752
Median house price: $1.6 million
The exclusive suburb of Chandler is a high-demand market with an impressive median property price of $1.6 million to match its median resident income of $128,752 per year.

Population: 6,851
Median income: $126,516
