The City of Moreton Bay is on the brink of significant growth over the next 25 years, with the current population of 520,000 expected to soar by almost 300,000 people. This rapid expansion presents both challenges and opportunities, particularly when it comes to housing.

With changing demographics indicating a rise in single-person households and an ageing population, the demand for diverse housing options is greater than ever. It is crucial for the region to increase housing supply, offering a variety of options such as apartments, townhouses, and terraces to meet the needs of different residents.

By supporting housing diversity, Moreton Bay can ensure a sustainable future, where residents have choices that suit their lifestyle and life stage. Right-sizing, rather than downsizing, is key to unlocking housing stock and creating connected communities.

As the region plans for growth, public support for diverse housing developments will play a pivotal role in shaping the future landscape of Moreton Bay. By advocating for housing diversity and actively engaging in the planning process, residents can help build a resilient and inclusive community for generations to come. It is our collective responsibility to champion diverse housing options and create a vibrant and sustainable future for our growing City.
