City of Gold Coast, Administrative center in southeastern Queensland, Australia
The City of Gold Coast extends across 1,334 square kilometers from Beenleigh to Coolangatta, incorporating coastal areas and inland regions near Brisbane.
The region transformed from small townships to a unified administrative entity in 1948, when the Town of South Coast combined several municipalities.
The municipal administration coordinates twelve libraries, multiple recreational facilities, and supports international relations through sister city agreements worldwide.
Residents can access council services at branch offices in Broadbeach, Burleigh Heads, Coolangatta, Palm Beach, Southport, Upper Coomera, and Helensvale.
The administrative division manages 890 kilometers of constructed waterfront land, resulting from the transformation of natural wetlands into residential waterways.
