Jindalee is an outer suburb of Brisbane, located 12km south-west of the Brisbane CBD, and is bordered by the Brisbane River to the north. The Aboriginal meaning for Jindalee is "bare hills".

Jindalee was the first of a series of suburbs originally called the "Centenary" suburbs, as planning for them commenced in 1959, the year of Queensland's centenary.

Prior to development the area had been largely used for grazing and dairy farming, however it was developed as part of the Hooker Centenary Project, beginning in 1960. The 8th Australian Scout Jamboree was held in the south-western corner of Jindalee, in the area which eventually was subdivided and became a suburb in its own right - Jamboree Heights.

The suburb has easy access to the Mt Coot-tha lookout, botanical gardens, and the planetarium, as well as direct access to the city via the Centenary Highway.

Jindalee is a popular suburb for growing families as the area offers a wide range of services and facilities for all family members within close vicinity.

While Jindalee only experienced mild increases in median house prices during the recent housing boom, price growth has accelerated in recent quarters as buyers are attracted back to the comparatively affordable property and the excellent services.

The Centenary suburbs are promoted as a fully planned development with extensive services and facilities including primary and high schools, the recently expanded Centenary regional shopping centre, police and fire stations and many sporting clubs including two golf courses.
