Property Management Albany Creek - Brisbane - Suburb Profile 


View Albany Creek By Rental Express Property Management in a larger map

                 Originally known as Chinaman’s Creek, Albany Creek receives its modern name in 1885, as a result of a petition of locals claiming that the area actually had no person or persons that fit the description of the area. In fact, the area’s first recorded settler, James Cash, established his residence in the area in 1849. The area continued to develop into an agricultural and lumber center into the 1860s.

                Within a number of years, dairying became the area’s primary economic drive, bringing an influx of population and thus, residents. This significantly aided the development of the local primary school (which today is Albany Creek State), church and cemetery. By 1905, the region also had its own village store.

                By the 1960s, Albany Creek began to develop into a suburb of Brisbane from its original township status. As both Brisbane and Albany Creek subsequently developed, the population of the area began to consistently double every decade. Throughout the following years, the area continued to modernize and urbanize, adding a number of shopping centers, schools and recreational centers.

In addition, there is an excellent selection of vacant land available for new homes and developments, which have already been popping up in the area as a result of the recent population increase.

Distance from CBD & Transportation:

                At only 16 km north of the Brisbane CBD, Albany Creek offers professionals a great location to live close to, but not directly in the city of Brisbane.  The Brisbane transit system has a number of transport offerings to ferry locals between the Brisbane CBD and Albany Creek.  The 359 Albany Express runs a consistent route between the CBD and the Albany Creek Bus Bay, with a rough trip time of about an hour.  In addition the 357 Eatons Hill Express travels between the CBD and Albany Creek Bus Station with a trip time around 45 minutes.

Albany Creek also borders over 1500 acres of State Forest, and has nearby access to Sandgate Beach (only 15km away) or the Sunshine Coast.
