I moved to Caboolture over 2 years ago due to the location between my work on the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane. Built a house in Central Lakes the new estate within walking distance of all the basics. I've heard all the stories about Cabo. Yeah there's drugs, deros, wannabe gangsters, welfare bludging deadbeats but there's also a growing number of professional and working class people moving to the suburb and changing it for the better.
In my own little section of the estate, I've formed great friendships with the people in my street and we often have get togethers and bbqs(neighbour is a local butcher so it always helps). There's a park directly across the road that my 3year old basically lives at, if he's not there he s riding his bike on the footpaths or quiet streets.
The commute to Brissy every morning is about 45mins-1hr and Sunny Coast about 30mins.
Nightlife in Caboolture is by no means vibrant, there's a few local bars to watch the footy at, wouldn't be taking the missus there on a date, but 20mins down the road is the Sandstone Point Hotel which is by far the classiest establishment in the area and well awarded(gets some great acts there).
Eating out in Cabo is alright, there's a couple of nice cafes, some decent fish n chip shops/burger joints, the typical fast food places and we have a 24hr bakery, which after a 10hr killer night shift is bloody awesome.
A growing CBD attracts lots of professionals during the day and there's further development to come to make the place better.
In the end Cabo is Cabo, it'll always have the name, if you're looking for an affordable place to live to raise a family or get into the housing market then Cabo is right for you.
