Big blocks, real money, and nowhere nearby to spend it.
Mount Cotton sits on the rural fringe of Redland, acreage blocks and horse paddocks between Brisbane's bayside suburbs and the hills, not a strip of shops but a spread of large residential lots that keeps filling with young families. The population was 7,302 at the last census, the median age is 34, and 36.9% of residents are under 25, numbers that describe a suburb still being built rather than one that finished growing years ago. Construction is the largest sector across the Redland council area, 3,117 businesses, well ahead of anything else, and that weighting shows up locally as new driveways, retaining walls and half-finished fences on the bigger blocks.
Household income here runs to $2,640 a week, family income $2,715, well above what most Redland suburbs report, but that money has nowhere close by to spend itself: no strip of shopfronts, just winding roads between acreage blocks and a real drive to Capalaba or Cleveland for anything beyond the essentials. A landscaper, a fencing contractor, an equine vet or a pool builder working these bigger blocks is competing for customers who won't drive around comparing signage. They search from the kitchen table and pick whoever's site looks like it can handle a property this size. Sirromet Winery pulls its own weekend traffic through the suburb, but the everyday economy here is trades and professional services serving acreage owners who can afford to be fussy and expect a site that matches the money.
