Overview

Southbrook is a small rural locality in the Toowoomba Region of Queensland, set on the Darling Downs just north‑east of Pittsworth. With a 2021 census population of 626, the town retains an agricultural character that grew from its 1880s dairying and cropping roots, and the name itself reflects the presence of a running brook. Residents enjoy open‑space living amid nearby natural landmarks such as Mount Watson and the local air‑field, Southbrook Airport, which lies only 1.7 km from the centre.

Transport links are anchored by the Gore Highway, which cuts across the north of town, providing straightforward road access to surrounding centres. Education is served by Southbrook Central State School, a government primary school, while secondary pupils travel to Pittsworth State High School in nearby Pittsworth. The mix of historic homes and newer rural dwellings reflects the town’s long‑standing farming heritage and its modest, family‑focused community.
