About Inala

Inala is Brisbane's most diverse suburb, a multicultural community of over 15,000 residents 16 kilometres southwest of the CBD. Originally built as Housing Commission estates, it's evolved into an authentic multicultural neighbourhood with Vietnamese, Sudanese, and Pacific Islander communities. Bus services connect to the Inala Civic Centre and broader network.

The food scene is Inala's treasure—Vietnamese bakeries, African restaurants, and Asian grocers offer authentic cuisines at remarkable prices. The community maintains genuine character that's increasingly rare in gentrifying Brisbane. Inala attracts multicultural families, foodies seeking authenticity, and those who appreciate diverse community character over polish.

Inala falls under postcode 4077 and is governed by Brisbane Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Inala electorate.
