Commentary

 Located just 10 kilometres north of the Brisbane CBD, Chermside West is a well-established Brisbane suburb with families making up the majority of residents.

The area contains very little vacant land and the high level of activity in the beginning of 2001 dried up most real bargains and created a shortage of supply in the area. Despite demand for housing in the area, Chermside West remains predominantly houses (90 per cent).

As is the situation with other surrounding suburbs, Westfield Shoppingtown in Chermside is the major commercial anchor for residents in Chermside West. It received a complete refurbishment recently that makes it one of the most popular shopping complexes in Brisbane. Also close by are Flockton Plaza and Brookside Shopping Centre.

A scattering of parks in the area including the Raven Street Reserve and Huxtable Park provide good walk and bikeways, and meeting points for social groups such as Scouts and Girl Guides.

Craigslea Primary and High schools in Chermside West and other state and private schools in neighbouring suburbs service families. Hospital services are also close at hand with Holy Spirit Hospital recently joining the Prince Charles Hospital and North West Private Hospital as one of three hospitals in the vicinity.

According to the 2006 Census there were 5,953 people living in the suburb with a median age of 39. The median individual income was $526 per week. Of all occupied private dwellings 80.9% were either fully owned or being purchased; 15.5% were being rented.
