It is unfortunate this place is so poorly designed. If you want to spend 45mins each morning queuing to drive to the next suburb this is the place for you. The peak hour commute to Brisbane City (2hrs) or Logan (1.5hrs) where the only work is found is next to impossible thanks to the traffic queues and lack of public transport options just to leave the suburb. The main road to Victoria Point (where the only decent grocery shops are found) is being duplicated to 4 lanes so expect constant traffic holdups and nightly machinery noise for next few years. Rates are extortionate, we couldn’t believe the difference. Trees and parks are nice, but many have no lighting for evenings and safety. we have had problems with youths at night using these places for no good. We’ve had 5 neighbours having breakins over last couple of years just in the surrounding couple of streets, stolen burnt out cars ditched in close by bushland and scared off someone on driveway breaking into our locked car. Mozzies are a problem after rain, but we’ve found walking in these times in long sleeves/pants sufficient. Plus factors are the concreted paths for cycling and walking, not overly shaded but they do connect different estates. Overall, once you’re here it’s quite hard to get to other places so make sure you love it as you’ll be spending a lot of time essentially locked into the suburb.
