According to REIQ research Kuraby has seen exceptional growth in terms of its median house price growth in recent years compared with neighbouring suburbs.

The main reason for this is the attractive topographical elevation of the area, creating an atmosphere of leafy bushland tranquility.  The suburb has also undergone extensive residential development in the last few years.

The area is developing infrastructure as the community base increases - at the moment the suburb boasts a State Primary School, a railway station that runs to the City and south to the Gold Coast, it has a shopping precinct with its main commercial district being serviced by the nearby suburb of Underwood.
