Flood

Does Yatala flood? It's a street-by-street question.

A suburb-wide flood figure hides the only answer that matters: whether the specific lot you are looking at sits inside a mapped overlay.

Where we're straight with you
We hold the parcel-level flood overlay here.

Flood overlays for Gold Coast are in our map. The per-lot answer (in or out of the overlay) is on the address report, not a suburb average.

What this tells you, and what it doesn't

A high owner-occupier share, paired with a professional resident base, is a demand signal: people buy here to live, not to flip. It says nothing about the specific street or block. The per-address report puts these residents next to the exact lot, its zoning and what is being built nearby.

Is Yatala a good suburb? · answered by the data

The questions buyers ask about Yatala.

It is about 30 km north-west of the Gold Coast CBD. Flood is a per-lot question here and we hold the parcel overlay, so check the exact address rather than a suburb average. That is the read from the data, not a verdict. The only number that truly counts is the one for the exact address, so check the lot before you fall for the suburb.

What is the median house price in Yatala?

The median house in Yatala is about $1.66M (2026). That figure comes from very few sales, so the data is thin, not accurate — treat it as a rough marker rather than a market rate.
