This was a great street to live in during uni, a little busy but that didn't bother me at that point, very convenient to shops and the uni, nice houses generally.

Albert street is an extremely convenient street located very close to shopping, food and the uni/schools. Great location for uni students, close to parks for sport etc also. Not the quietest street in Townsville but not too bad.

Fairly quiet street, nice houses, pretty close to facilities. I liked it.

Lived at 2 houses on this street, its a nice enough street, does suffer from a bit of traffic and noise. Close to shops though.

Vera street is a small street next to the creek in Toowong. Very little straffic to speak of and a nice family feel, there is a community garden and park next to the creek and school access is right there. Some of the lower parts are a bit subject to water during storm flooding though.

To be honest there isn't much going on in Bradon apart from the pub, its on the main highway so traffic is bad, and being on the train line doesn't help either. The police like to catch speeding drivers with their radar on the outskirts.

There is no getting around the traffic and noise of Waterworks road, our house was slightly off it on a service road which helped slightly but it is a very very busy road. Apart from that obvious factor it was a very nice location, with family friendly parks, walking paths, shopping and dining facilities all very close by. Nice view can be had on either side of the road depending on where along the street you are located.

Cochrane Street connects the major Red Hill/Paddington strips of Waterworks Rd and Latrobe Terrace, making it very close to eating/entertainment and shopping facilities. It is well serviced by buses and provides some spectacular city views at its higher parts. The street mainly consists of old character houses, many of which have been renovated to their former glory. Carries a moderate amount of traffic during to and from work hours but all in all a very convenient and pleasant street to live in.

Lizzie Street is a nice quiet street on the Red Hill side of Bardon, extremely close to Ithaca Creek Primary school and a short walk to the Ithaca creek parklands/ walk paths. Very little traffic along the split road and lined with a mixure of old character houses and more modern contemporary buildings make it a loverly street to raise a family.

Very close to Bardon shops and Paddington/Latrobe stripe for entertaining or shopping. Great place to live.

Lugg street is one of many the pleasant streets full of character houses in Red Hill. One of the most notable features is the Ithaca Creek Primary School which is located on it, this does cause additional traffic during pick ups and drop off times but apart from that traffic is fairly minimal. The westerly side of the street offers great views towards Mt Cootha and the easterly overing city glimpses in the higher parts.

The location of the school makes the street very convenient for families with young children, it also has children and adult swimming classes/squads and tennis courts. Paddington/Bardon/Ashgrove dining and retail are all a quick drive or moderate walk away.

Maybe I am biased but I believe Ayr is a great place for kids to grow up in, small enough getting lost or mugged isn't a problem, with enough people for a couple sporting teams. Most facilities are close by and well catered for. The area has great fishing spots, good camping, boating and other outdoor activities. The district is still fairly dependent on sugar and other primary industries, your hi-tech or academic career might not exactly flourish here, and come adulthood many of the school leavers will choose to up and leave for the bright lights, but even if they do I'm sure in time most would look back foundly on the place.

There was a time when the average wealth of the district was one of the higher in the country, as well as most 4x4 registrations per capita for memory, I doubt that is still the case but still a great place to live if the simple life and outdoor activities are you thing.

Toowong is a nice suburb, very close to University of Queensland, CBD, the Brisbane river. It has great shopping and entertaining with the Royal Exchange and Regatta hotels very popular with locals and students alike. There are many nice green streets with attractive character houses, but it really is the position which makes Toowong so desirable, so close to the city, the uni, walk by the river, catch the city cat to work in the CBD or even walk.

Toowong's main assest provides its main problem, being in the middle of everything the traffic is getting very bad, from Coronation drive on one side and Milton road on the other it can be a pain to try and get anywhere around rush hour. The uni also seems to attract a population of young drivers with loud vehicles at times. Overall a beautiful suburb but with serious traffic issues.

Enoggera Terrace is a fairly busy street in Red Hill which connects Latrobe Terrace to the west with Waterworks road to the north. The street runs along the top of a hill providing spectacular city views to the east and views over Paddington and Red Hill to the west.

Stepped in history it was one of the earlier roads in the area and is home to beautiful character houses mixed with executive contemporary buildings. Towards the Paddington end is the old fire house which now serves are an art gallery, the street also has a good mix of restaurants, an historic stone church, a medical centre, childcare and retail shops.

Dacca street is a very short cul-de-sac in Red Hill, near the boundary of Bardon, Paddington and Ashgrove, at one end is the back entrance to Ithaca Creek primary school with Arthur Terrace on the other.

The street is set high on what was originally called Dillion's Hill estate when sub-divided in the 1880s, providing city views to the east and views over Bardon towards the mountains to the west. The street is generally very quiet and serves as access for young children and their parents going to swimming lessons at the pool or occasional school events which serves to enhance the community feel.

Arthur Terrace is a street running through Red Hill, flanked by character houses with the occasional unit and modern contemporary house. It is serviced well by public transport, close to the Paddington dining and shopping precinct, as well as the Ithaca Creek primary school and Brisbane Broncos leagues club which are found just off it. The area is very friendly with a lot of young families living in the area.
