Across its 2.76 km², Florey is relatively unconstrained by planning overlays. Flood mapping covers the suburb and none of it falls within a mapped flood overlay. The dominant land-use zone is Suburban. The median lot measures about 790 m² across 1,612 parcels.

Florey planning - frequently asked

Where can I see a flood map of Florey?

Is Florey flood-prone?

Flood mapping covers Florey and none of the suburb falls within a mapped flood overlay (the district-wide suburb average is 3%). Flood overlays vary block to block, so whether a particular lot is affected needs a property-level check.

What is the zoning in Florey?
