## Resource

People are fleeing Australia’s crowded, expensive coasts for the quieter, more affordable Darling Downs in Queensland. Drawn by lower prices and a slower pace, families like Dave Summerville’s—once stuck in beachside traffic jams—are trading million-dollar coastal homes for half the price on sprawling acreage. While coastal cities see stubbornly high median prices over a million, Darling Downs offers under-six-hundred-thousand-dollar deals, attracting “hobby farmers” and burnout-busters seeking space, calm, and even cash to spare. Meanwhile, buyers on the coast still struggle—Emma and Aaron spent years saving just to snag a home near $750K. Experts watch nervously as inflation and rates loom, wondering if this is a temporary dip or the start of a bigger shift: two markets, one booming, one quietly taking off.
