About Nanango and Kingaroy:
Nanango and Kingaroy sit in the heart of the South Burnett region, about 2.5 hours from Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast. It is a friendly, down-to-earth area where people know each other, say hello in the street, and genuinely look out for their community. The region has everything you need: schools, sporting clubs, hospitals, gyms, cafes, childcare, and a strong network of local services. Housing is far more affordable than the city, and there is plenty of space to breathe (and no peak-hour traffic). If you enjoy clean air, wide open spaces, starry skies, wineries, food trails, or weekends spent exploring lakes, bush tracks, and small country towns, you’ll feel right at home here. The South Burnett is growing quickly and there’s strong demand for health services, which means real opportunity to make a meaningful difference while enjoying a relaxed regional lifestyle.
