Carina

"Such a nice quiet family friendly suburb"

I moved to Carina 2 years ago and have really enjoyed living here. There are heaps of townhouses getting built in the area, so the old derelict homes are coming down making way for new updated stylish townhouses. Each build looks so different so the landscape is constantly changing. Even with the amount of townhouses being built, my street and the surrounding ones are whisper quiet. I don't hear any dogs barking and I am far enough back from Old Cleveland Road, that I don't have any traffic noise either.

I work in the city and drive there. It is 8km from my home to my work exactly, and if I leave at 8am Monday - Friday I am there at 8.40am sitting at my office desk. But if you prefer to get public transport, there are buses frequently, which makes for easy commuting. It only takes 15 minutes to drive to the CBD on the weekend.

I feel safe walking around Carina at night, or on the weekends. There are heaps of young families also going for their walk and they are friendly, say hello and smile as they walk past. My neighbours are also very nice, they will happily collected my mail and take out my bin for me if I am away, and I also do the same for them. There is a real community vibe to Carina which makes it a desirable location to live.

I would highly recommend Carina, everything is just at your doorstep from the restaurants and boutique shops of Westfield Carindale, with easy access to the Gateway Motorway going north to the airport or south to Gold Coast.
