Commentary	Tingalpa is 9.5 km east of the Brisbane CBD and is a thriving suburb with many recent residential developments. The suburb also has some older style homes built in the post war period - weatherboard and chamferboard post war cottages in particular. Most of the new estates are made up of typically low set and high set brick and tile homes. Previously the land that is now being developed into residential zones was devoted to small farmlets and semi-industrial developments. This development is increasing the population and the median house prices of the suburb. Proximity to the Gateway Motorway makes the suburb convenient for accessing the main routes to the Gold and Sunshine Coasts. Also convenient is the nearby Murarrie railway station that runs west to the city and east to Manly and the bay. There are also several bus routes from Tingalpa to neighbouring suburbs. Located in nearby Murarrie is the local state primary school, an RSL club, the Brisbane Polo Grounds and Murarrie Recreation Ground. The main shopping facilities are located in Tingalpa and neighbouring Carina and Carindale. One outstanding feature of the area is the extensive Minnipi Parklands, through which the Bulimba Creek runs and provides a conveniently located canoe club venue. Being relatively close to the city, the suburb is assured future popularity and good house price growth. Source: REIQ
