About Milora

Milora is a small rural locality in the Scenic Rim Region of south-east Queensland, situated approximately 53 kilometres south-west of Brisbane and 13 kilometres north of Boonah. Covering 13.4 square kilometres of gently rolling countryside, it recorded a population of 136 residents in the 2021 Census. Milora falls within the Scenic Rim Regional Council area and the state electorate of Scenic Rim. The locality is characterised by a patchwork of small farms, hobby farms, and rural residential blocks set against the stunning backdrop of the Great Dividing Range foothills.

Life in Milora is defined by its peaceful, semi-rural atmosphere and the natural beauty of the Scenic Rim landscape. The locality sits within the broader Fassifern Valley area, an agricultural heartland known for cattle grazing, dairying, and small-scale produce farming. Residents typically commute to nearby Boonah or Ipswich for work, schools, and services. The close-knit community values its rural setting, and the area appeals to families and acreage buyers looking for affordable land within reach of south-east Queensland's urban centres. Scenic Rim's tourist infrastructure — including wineries, national parks, and the annual Eat Local Week — enriches life in the region.

Milora falls under postcode 4309 and is governed by the Scenic Rim Council (Local Government Area). For federal elections, residents vote in the electorate of Wright, while state elections fall under the Scenic Rim electorate.
