Bronwyn&Co Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) Hey ElliottdeanI don't know it at all, sorry! I looked on a map and it seems to be near Wakerley, which is a popular suburb. Know two sets of friends of friends who love Wakerley.I think it sounds fine. Certainly not a bad area. Good luck with your plans Edited August 23, 2014 by Bronwyn&Co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottdean Posted August 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 thanks all, will also drive around the suburb when i get to Brisbane. Always a good way to check out a place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) thanks all, will also drive around the suburb when i get to Brisbane. Always a good way to check out a place.Yes, I think it is a bit patchy...some bits good, some not so, so a thorough drive around to all the different parts would be needed. Might find a few skid marks on the roads out that way Neighbouring Alexandra Hills has some issues I think...not the best for public transport and things like that as it is a bit out in the boondocks but that may not matter to you...if out that way might be best to stay near the train for transport into Brisbane.The suburbs to its west like Chandler and Carindale and to its east like Cleveland are a little better regarded I think though Birkdale has some very nice suburban pockets and acreages....just need to find the right pockets.
