It is a very quiet suburb, away from all the chaos of the city but close to the shops, schools, parks and public transport.
If you live near the train station, you are able to take advantage of Northgate being the gateway to the northern suburbs with two different train lines running through. This means trains every 15 minutes instead of every half hour!
Walking distance to Nundah and Toombul shopping centres. Northgate is also just down the road from Chermside, the largest shopping centre in Queensland the second largest in Australia. If for whatever reason you are missing some shops, you can probably get it online.
If you ever want to leave the best suburb in Brisbane to go somewhere else, it also happens to be right next to the Airport.
