Commentary

Located approximately 3 km from the Brisbane CBD, Bowen Hills is a mix of light industrial, commercial and some residential property.

Home to Queensland Newspapers and the Brisbane Strikers Social Club at Perry Park, Bowen Hills provides its relatively small population with good public transport and easy access to the Royal Brisbane Hospital, Fortitude Valley and Brisbane City.

The popularity of the suburb is largely due to its proximity to the city. Surrounding suburbs such as Lutwyche, Albion and Windsor provide services such as schools and shopping facilities for residents of Bowen Hills.

The local retail stores in the area are supplemented by larger retail chains in Lutwyche Shopping Centre and slightly further away in the Stafford City and Brookside Shopping Centres.

A feature of the area is the large railway workshop situated in the northern sector of the suburb and crossing Breakfast Creek.

Apart from Perry Park, residents looking for recreational areas travel to neighbouring suburbs for a variety of walk and bikeways along Breakfast Creek.

Private and public schools in surrounding suburbs catering to primary and secondary aged children, service the families living in and around Bowen Hills.

According to the 2001 Census there were 1,157 people living in the suburb with a median age of 32. The median individual income was between $300 and $399 per week. Of all occupied private dwellings 30% were either fully owned or being purchased; 58% were being rented.
