"Capalaba is pretty good"
I live in the next suburb from Capalaba but was originally looking to buy there. Capalaba is still reasonably affordable and you can still buy a lovely family home for 550k. It's a very convenient location with 2 great shopping centres that have everything you need. Every big chain store you can think of is in Capalaba. The traffic near the shops is really shit from 3 - 6 on weekdays. Otherwise, it is a great suburb.

"Great Place to live"
This particular area is less than 30 minutes to the CBD, and two minutes to major shopping centre and amenities.
Howlett road ends at the dam and is not a through fare road, the benefits are peace and quite, with no unsavoury types driving around, very safe.
So if you have a large family or wish to have some land, where the neighbours cannot shake your hand from your window, this is the place for you.
We have lived here for 20 years, it is truly a nice place.
