MacGregor is a south-side suburb in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Its postal code is 4109. MacGregor, like its surrounding suburbs, incorporates a very diverse multicultural community. Previously considered part of Sunnybank, the suburb was named in 1967.
The suburb is in three main parts, divided by the six-lane Kessels Road, and separately, Mimosa Creek. Most residential buildings are single and two-storey beige brick houses with a tiled roof.
The suburb of MacGregor was named after Scottish-born Sir William MacGregor who was the Governor of Queensland from 1909 until 1914. It is spelt MacGregor, not Macgregor although local businesses may have used the latter.
There appears to be no specific naming convention for the roads. Streets on the eastern part of the suburb include a mixture of plant (Freesia, Galliardia) and Scottish (Blairgowrie, Carnoustie) names. On the south-west portion, Angelina and Damson are plum cultivars, Elberta a type of peach, and Jonathan may refer to a type of apple, being some of the agricultural produce that may have been grown in the area before urbanisation.
In the 2011 census, the population of MacGregor was 5,576, 51.6% female and 48.4% male.
The median age of the MacGregor population was 32 years of age, 5 years below the Australian median.
