Thats brilliant, thank you! So are Clafield / Wooloowin / Tenriffe / Newstead and New Farm good areas? People / crime / safety etc wise? We were looking at Fortitude area at one point but got put off by some of the negative comments towards it... Not sure if this is the case still? As the new apartments there look amazing.

So the further out you go, do the houses become "less polished" so to speak? I guess theyd become more affordable because they arent in the centre and thats why they tend to have less desired residents?

@srg73 thanks for the response, so what were your thoughts on Ascot? And why are you moving to Bowen Hills? We have seen a couple of places in Ascot but werent sure...

Thank you both for your responses so far! @lastonealive, sorry i did forget some crucial details! So we would like to have a rental, house preferred) or apartment would be good with 2 bedrooms or more. At the moment we are using public transport quite a lot and its great, really well connected. Just really concerned about being in a good local area. What should I expect to pay for a nice apartment with 2 bedrooms? Thanks again, Ash.

To say - Hi All, Me and my partner have recently moved to Brisbane into temporary "holiday" accommodation but we are looking to move into our own rented property asap. There are so many different suburbs we really need some good strong guidance from other residents and locals on what suburbs are good, why they are good, which ones are bad and why we should avoid them etc. could anyone please help?! Update - So we are looking for either a house or apartment, need 2 bedrooms or more, being a little further out from the city wouldnt be too much for a problem as we hope to have a car but we want are looking to meet friends in the area so i guess cant be too remote... We have noticed the further out you are the more space you get but is that worth it if the area isnt great or you maybe are too far from the CBD? Thank you so much in advance!! :-) Ash. Reason for update - Forgot to mention some crucial details as @lastonealive mentioned (thank you btw!) Thanks, Ash.
