Tokarara has experienced significant development, especially since the completion of the Koura Freeway in 2018, which has connected the suburb to Downtown Port Moresby in just a 5-minute drive. Predominantly a residential area, Tokarara has seen new investments, including the opening of the new Tango Supermarket.
The suburb features a mix of colonial-era homes and newer timber or brick residences, reflecting recent road extensions and development in the area.
Despite a substantial increase in property values over the past decade, Tokarara remains attractive to first-time homebuyers and investors. The high demand for rental properties in the suburb is driven by its convenient location near Waigani and Downtown Port Moresby.
