Jc3. I think insinuating that Capalaba kids attending Alex High is a bad idea is a very poor statement. They are neighbouring suburbs and I have many friends that lives in both suburbs and they are no different to people living in any other area. Alex Hills TAFE is fantastic I have friends who are teachers there and the high school offers lots of practical courses. The children who attend are from all socioeconomic backgrounds. If you are really worried spend $10,000-17,000 per year and send your kids to Redlands College, Ormiston College or Sheldon College. I love living in the Redlands and have many many great friends living in all suburbs across the district. I don't live in Alex Hills or Capalaba but have found your statement quite insulting, so for all of the people living there reading this I will apologise on behalf of you. P.S the Alex Hills Goodlife is a great gym (across from the high school and TAFE) and they also accept people from Capalaba too. They do offer hand sanitizer on arrival and lockers for your peace of mind (sorry but couldn't resist) Whatever your choice, you will be happy . Enjoy the Redlands
All suburbs have 'less desirable' pockets. However Alex Hills is not an area in Brisbane I would consider 'not great' it is full of wonderful families, nice parks and great mid size shopping centre, great gyms and a fantastic conservation area for trails runs etc. I think it's a lovely suburb and the housing is still very affordable. The high school has a great reputation too
Absolute rubbish. I have lived here for 9 years and never had any problems at all. I am raising an 18 month old daughter (with my wife) and have no concerns with the area in the slightest. In fact i have just sold my house & bought another one also in Alex Hills, after looking elsewhere in the bayside & actually having concerns with other suburbs (Wynnum West, Capalaba & so on).
I have lived in the southern part of Alexandra Hills for more than 15 years; I really enjoy living here and have no plans to leave. My kids have grown up here and went to local schools. It is a friendly and safe area and we have never had any problems. I can definitely say that this part of Alexandra Hills is a great place to live.
We really enjoy living in Alexandra Hills. The neighbours are great. The shopping centre is a short walk away. The suburb is central to all other suburbs in Redlands Coast.
Hi are you familiar with AHSHS &Taffe ? the school looks great on paper and achievements but is it a safe school regarding teenagers from the area seeing as they accept Capalaba kids aswel as Alexandra Hills kids thank tou
