Overview

Stuart is a rural coastal suburb of Townsville bounded to the north‑east by the Coral Sea. In the 2021 census, Stuart had a population of 1,576 people, with most land remaining undeveloped and a small pocket of residential housing nestled among extensive infrastructure and industrial sites such as the Mount Stuart Power Station, Sun Metals Zinc Refinery, a landfill and the Townsville Correctional Centre. The neighbourhood of Partington lies within the suburb, recalling its historic railway siding heritage.

Transport links are a strong point: the North Coast railway line and Stuart railway station define the western edge, while the Bruce Highway runs south‑east to north‑west, intersecting the Flinders Highway and providing access to Townsville Connection Road and Townsville Port Road. Although there are no schools within Stuart, primary and secondary options are nearby in South Townsville, Idalia, Wulguru and Annandale, making the area convenient for families who value a blend of coastal tranquillity and easy connectivity.
