Question

I'm moving to Brisbane in a few weeks, where's a good suburb to live?

Answer 1

f*ck you statswaters; Brisbane is a great place to live....warm all year round compared to Sydney or Melbourne and a great place to raise a family with lots of parks and walking tracks.

I would try the Northside of Brisbane. Even try as far north as 'North Lakes'. Its a bit out of town but a very nice area....Mango Hill (near North Lakes) is also a great place!

good luck house hunting and enjoy!

don't live in inala (aka boganville) or woodridge

Answer 3

I live in banyo. DON'T come to banyo.

Answer 4

Mango Hill / Griffin. On the northside of Brisbane about 35 minutes from the city by road. There is a train nearby and a bus. It is new with new schools, shops, library, there is something there for everyone from birth to death. It is the fastest growth area in Australia I think 22% growth between 2006 and 2007.  It is huge and is getter bigger and bigger.  There are a lot of people moving there from overseas that I talk to at the shops.

Go the google earth and have a look at the shopping centre North Lakes or Northlakes. There is everything you could want there..

Good luck. Welcome and come on down.

Answer 7

depends on what you want to spend indroopilly/kenmore/chelmer area is nice

Answer 8

Somewhere in the Western Suburbs. Toowong, Taringa, Indooroopilly, Kenmore. All are very green and leafy and have heaps of character. The first 3 are on the train line if that's of use to you. All are handy to the University of Queensland.

Answer 9

Northside or inner western suburbs are the best places I think.

Avoid the southside... especially Logan, Woodridge, Springwood, Beenleigh, Ipswich etc... they are very dodgy!!
