I cannot believe there are so many bad reviews for this beautiful city! I was born in Toowoomba and moved when I was 3 but I recently revisited Toowoomba and LOVED it! Although, I would never live there because I am not a fan of the cold, which would seem to be it's only down fall. As for the shopping aspect, Toowoomba has a lovely shopping center and Toowoomba has a huge advantage on shopping compared to other towns of it's size. for eg. you have myer, not even Townsville has a myer.

Townsville has had a Myer for at least 25 years - when I used to live there. I preferred the shopping in Townsville though recently it has had a downturn.
Townsville is beyond horrid!! Having to lock your car doors whilst driving,secure your premises beyond the norm with cameras,watch all intersections for youths in stolen cars running red lights like GTA style,druggos jumping counters in shops with knives,watching your back whilst you go to and from your vehicle,paying caution to the fact that whilst fueling your car you may have it hijacked,perhaps you'll have it egged so that you can't see through the windscreen and have NO choice but to pull over where you're assaulted and your car stolen by youths. If you're wanting a disgusting city of disrespectful degenerate chroming detention center youths ruling the place then yeah....Go Townsville!! Such a lovely safe place to raise children or retire. Check out the crime rates. I wouldn't even let my dog live there because they're beating them with sticks and stones and kicking them,or,feeding them over a period of time to get to your premises,stealing from you whilst you're home awake or asleep or out and about....they don't care about violating you or your pets! Crimesville,Brownsville,Clownsville are now my preferred names for that hot crime hole.
"Biggest hole!"
I just visited here but it was the worst place I have ever been to!

I'm guessing it was a brief visit & the nightlife wasn't there for you..... yes, the town could do with a little spruce up in a few areas, and there's not a lot of work for young people..... but there's a lot going for it.... the fabulous old character homes, the people are GENUINE & friendly, it's cheaper to live & relatively central to a whole lot of places worth visiting in this area......
Never been to Townsville then, mate?
I kid, I kid! Just poking some fun. Love you Townsville!
"Its a nice town. I had bad neighbours though and it is a little too far from everything."

The new areas of Thabeban are great but the older parts are mostly housing commission and have a lot of crime (Apparently). I lived in the new part and had no problems what so ever, how ever, I hate Bundaberg all together.
