"Friendly neighbourhood & Great Views"

I have had bad experience renting in other suburbs of Townsville but finally found the best one which is in a close proximity to the CBD

Mount Louisa is a good suburb due to being quiet, convenient, safe, flood free and has good views of the hill

"Amazing views"

A lot of the blocks at Mt Louisa are elevated and have views to die for, they are so beautiful. It is very close to all amenities and the freeway into the CBD and beach side areas.

"The worst place in Townsville"

If you don't want to hear jets flying over your house at 6 am in the morning or dogs barking at 3 am in the morning then don't live here.

"Quiet place to live for the middle class working familys. Overated on this site for sure."

Better to live on the mountain side rather than closer to bayswater rd. there is a small shopping center with all amenities and also close to major outlets not far by. quick access to the highway to the north.

I've lived most my life on the eastern side of the city and find it a little annoying when in traffic, (if you call townsville traffic "busy") if you are from a major city it is nothing. found my car insurance increasing very slightly like 14 dollars p/a. Good for new families but might be a bit boring for teenagers and bit far from social hotspots and hang-outs. The night life ie. clubs are in the city and cost 30-50 dollars for a taxi on a saturday night with no public transport late night. Only one decent pub around 2-3 kms called the avenue. But there is a few working class pubs like the dalrymple hotel which is overpriced for an average dinner but not bad for lunch.

Overall it isn't a bad place to live. There are better places for middle class to wealthy people ie. hermit park, mundingburra, rosslea,pimlico, mysterton, idalia some parts of south townsville, wuguru and railway estate. (depending on flood water levels and obtaining home insurance) Places to avoid; Garbutt, heatley, vincent, some parts of kirwan (but is a big suburb so basically stay to the west side roughly), kelso, condon, rasmussen and some parts of aietkinvale.

Great for

  • Quiet
  • Close to shops,fitness centres, schools, airport and RAAF base
  • Cheaper houses.

Not great for

  • Little further from the city
  • Crime, theft, side swipe and hit my car overnight and i had to pay excess
  • Far from the hospital, Uni, army barracks and Port
