Overview
Eagleby is an adjacent suburb to Beenleigh, but make no mistake; it has developed a strong, individual identity as it has blossomed into a hotbed of growth and development.
In many senses, Eagleby has been the catalyst of growth for the district and benchmark for prices in the area. The suburb's once tainted reputation has been shed and the influx of development and investment has driven unabated growth for all who have owned their own home or invested in the area.
The shopping centre is due for renovation in the next year and various government infrastructure are being replaced or rejuvenated. Currently there are approximately 10 subdivisions in various stages of completion and just as many being planned.
Gold Coast City Council's website has useful demographic statistics for each suburb. Below you'll find sales growth charts for the area over the last few years.
