Guest Aldo Posted September 8, 2009 Don't do it!!! The rule of thumb is stay east of the motoway when in s. Brisbane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
calNgary 8,548 Posted September 8, 2009 LOL, Slacks Creek isnt the best for actually living in (as you may have guessed from Aldo's reply,lol) It is very industrial with lots of works and garages. Cal x If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place... If you get a chance,take it, If it changes your life,let it. Nobody said it would be easy they just said it would be worth it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Aldo Posted September 8, 2009 Just across the motorway, Chatswood, Daisy Hill, Shailor Park, Roachdale, Springwood are OK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest jocks in oz Posted September 16, 2009 Don't do it!!! The rule of thumb is stay east of the motoway when in s. Brisbane We are in Slacks Creek and we have never had a problem. :realmad: We live in quiet street (all new builds) which is on the Ikea end and only mins away from the more expensive DAISY HILL where you wont get a new build for $370,000. There is bad areas in all suburbs so its upto you where you decide to live, our kids go to springwood schools so all in we like it here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats true, sorry if i offended you.There are some nice pockets especially south of Ikea. Tanah merah and loganholm have some realy nice streets and a very good park that boarders the Logan River.

Rudi 1,730 Posted September 16, 2009 I think so much of the time we classify whole suburbs as being bad, when the reality is that it's only small part of suburbs that give a place a bad name. People say how horrid Capalaba is, and yet most of it is lovely and there are some fabulous properties there. Love Rudi x Belle Vee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No offence taken just think its a shame the whole place has been given the same reputation as the Woodridge end thats all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
