Mango Hill
Mango Hill is the sister suburb to North Lakes and located just north of Brisbane. Its local government area is the Moreton Bay Regional Council.
The area was named Mango Hill on 1 September 1980, after the mango trees lining Anzac Avenue as it passes through the area. In the 2011 Census, Mango Hill became clearly known as the young couples suburb with the average age being 33 years or 4 years below the Australian average. The population was 4,340 with 51.6% female and 48.4% male. Just over 69% of people living in Mango Hill were born in Australia. The other top countries of birth were England 8.3%, New Zealand 6.4%, and South Africa 2.3%.
In March 2006, the northern part of the suburb was subdivided to form the suburb of North Lakes by the Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Water. While this plan will control the rapid development underway, some very community based infrastructure has been built or is in the planning stage. Including a wide selection of parks, kids playgrounds, great options for schooling of all ages and the Mango Hill Tavern for bringing families together.
