Bracken Ridge

"JUST TERRIBLE"

I seriously cannot believe that Bracken RIdge has so many favourable reviews by residents.

They are either deaf, blind, stupid or ignorant.

The suburb has so many undesirables, evident by the amount of housing commission and run down properties in the vicinity,

In it's defence, good shopping centres, great pub but that is about it.

Unfortunately with a great pub comes lots of hoons and trouble.

All the locals know its full of rif raf, personally I would stay away and a large proportion of people feel the same way,

Great for

  • Convenience to the north and south coast/ airport
  • Access to all important facilities
  • Availability to public transport, beach, and village
  • Good cost living

Not great for

  • Real concern about reckless driving and illegal car modifications (often P-plater)
  • "Wrong Side of The Tracks" bringing the whole suburb into disrepute
  • Not safe at night (especially weekends)
  • Police not effectively enforcing people's right to quiet enjoyment in neighbourhoods (noisy party complaints)
  • Drunk people walking home from pub on weekend nights, swearing at each other (regular occurance).

I wonder if you've lived in other suburbs to compare? I think most of your comments (especially P-platers, noisy parties, not feeling safe at night on weekend when you live near a pub) apply just as much as to any suburb I have lived in. Actually I feel Bracken Ridge is quieter and safer than most suburbs I have lived in. Your comment that drunk people walk home from the pub and are noisy tell me you live near the pub. Obviously this is going to be an issue living near any large pub anywhere in Australia. I have lived in 2 houses in Bracken Ridge and had zero of these problems as I don't live near the pub. I am making these comments in comparison to other places I have lived in the past 20 years (5 suburbs in Brisbane, 2 in Sydney, 3 in England).

I like the hoons mate. Makes some excitement into the day. And what illegal modifications are you talking about? A loud exhaust? Grow up
