Not too far not too close to everything it depends on if you're willing to do a bit of drive. 10 minutes from the town to the highway and it takes you to everywhere. Within one hour to the airport and there're probably only a couple of traffic lights in the entire trip. Half hour to the beach, just take Steve Irwin way and short cut to the Brisvigas weekenders feels like a privilege. 40 minutes to Ikea and Costco. If you're afraid of crowd, mountain climbing, dirt tracks, farm work, boat ramp and fishing spots at the coochin creek estuary, or go for a trip to Blackall range, lots of things to do within 30 minutes drive. Or if you're lazy there's everything you need in the town. Get a place with large backyard and build up your own sanctuary garden and hobby shed. Most importantly, there're still large blocks at affordable price and with practical access to essential services. The potential new Bunnings, fast rail and CAMCOS line and Beerwah East, sounds very promising for long term investors and residents. People are generally nice and friendly. But trust your gut feeling when you scout around, not every estate and street are the same. Lastly, send kids to the private school in the town.

Young surfers' perch, drug and alcohol issue emerges, you don't have to live next to the beach, there's a lot of overpraised places, which actually have totally nothing but a boring view of beach.
