Warwick Today

Profile

Warwick is the major town centre of the Southern Downs Region which has seen growth and investment in horticulture, agriculture, commerce, manufacturing and tourism. These industries are already flourishing, and the Southern Down’s quality infrastructure means there is ample room for new developments.

The majority of Southern Downs businesses are classified as small to medium enterprises and cover a wide range of industry types.

The region’s population has increased over the past 5 years at an annual average rate of 1.4%. Population increase has been brought about partly by the “tree change” phenomenon, and partly by the affordability of high quality housing – currently averaging 40% less than Brisbane prices.

The Southern Downs also has a unique sense of community – captured by the region’s leading community newspapers, Warwick Today

Areas include Warwick, Killarney and Allora while copies are also available from news agencies, corner stores, motels, servos and other businesses.
