Currently living in Carina Heights, have been for 3 years, it can be a nice quiet surburb for families. The street I live on is often quiet, although I don't know the neighbors, a lot of them tend to be alright when I do pass on them on the street. I do find the surburb itself a more rich upper sort of streets.
Every Christmas I do a little thing for the street I am on, giving them small gifts at their doorsteps, so far they have enjoyed it and been friendly back, which is why I can say, aleast for my street it isn't so bad.

However, if you cannot drive, it isn't quite ideal, given the bus stops are spread out, and the buses don't come as much as the main street ones do, to a point I use Uber. Closest cafe is about a 20-25 minute walk away. There are a lot of hills, which can be a problem if you are older or have disabilities. If you can drive, then Carindale isn't that far at all, the shopping centre, then there's the Carina shops that includes the doctors.

Yes, there are dogs on the streets that bark, but let's be honest, every street is going to have dogs, and they are part of the family, if you are fine with children yelling all the time, dogs should be fine. The dogs where I am only really do it during the day, you can never really hear them at night.

So if you got a car, money, and such, families are great here, it is quiet and not so bad. Couples should do fine here too.

I lived in Morningside between 2013-2014, it is close to a lot of shops and resturants, that is a plus! Transport is good into the city and there is a train. It was also a little weird at times, I remember there was an Indian resturant up the road from me, where I ordered food and it was the wrong order, I think I must have said something on my Facebook, a private post that somehow the owner found then called me, telling me he fired the person who made the mistake. I don't know what happened there, or how he managed to look at my FB.
Another strange occurence is there was a street across the road from my bedroom window, and in the last months I was there for, there would always be an ambulance going up to a house, followed by a cop car, they would then leave after some time. At one point I remember a cop car went to that street, and then was leaving to go on the main road (It was like across the road then down a street, just a few houses), I could hear a scream and the police backed up and went to the house again. I have no clue what happened here, or why this was the case. Would I say Morningside is safe? Not entirely, there was also apparently a murder somewhere in the surburb when I lived there.

So it had a mixture of both, it depends where you honestly live and what street you choose.

I lived in Mackenzie for about 23 years or so, before moving to my first home in Camp Hill. This will be biased, but I will also stick to what is true.
Now I lived on the main road, and there wasn't really much else there, one house next to my family, and a school on the other side. As I don't have a car, all the shops were too far away besides two petrol stations, back in 2012, the buses only came every hour and didn't really do much on Sundays (It may have changed since then).
However it was my first home, and home to so many memories before the foundation of my family changed, if you ever passed that street before 2010 and saw a lot of cars in the large parking lot between the school and the house, we were probably having a large family party, heck pass it in the 90's, you think it was a party house. But anyways, it was a safe and nice location, out of the way but if you don't mind the distance, then it's a great place. There is a park about 10mins behind the house in more streets and houses that are behind it, the park is nice, and I have never had any problems walking down there. There was only one incident a few years ago that did make it on news, however it wasn't a cold blooded murder, it was something else. My mother still lives there, and she likes it, it's good.
This may be biased for me, but home is where the heart is.

I move around a lot for different reasons, and lived in Camp Hill twice, let me tell you the experience differs to street, and this is true to every surburb you see a review on.
A few years back I lived in a complex by the main road, it was noisy, and can't say I liked the spot my townhouse was in it, as it had too many ants. It did have some nice bakeries up there (The coffee shop wasn't there when I was), and the bus stops is excellent, many to choose from to get to Carindale and the city.
Now I live closer to the Camp Hill Market Place. It is good in terms of food places to eat, coffee, right next to a Woolworths!
The bad however, is that there seems to be a lot of noise, given it is by a busy road to the markey place, a lot of places are under construction, and Camp Hill was forced to have NBN, so the internet quality here is poor (Last time I lived in the area, there wasn't really a crappy NBN stopping us.). The bus timetables are dreadful, only come every hour from the Marketplace, then Sundays are the worst too. The house I live in also gets a lot of bugs and such, I don't know if Camp Hill is just a place for them as both houses I lived in, had a lot of that problem.
Camp Hill has a mixture of things really, so I don't want to give it full stars but it's not completely horrible either.

Carindale is definitely a more higher priced place, but I think it was a fanastic place to live, I lived in an complex right across from Carindale Shopping Centre, the neighbors were friendly, I felt safe walking from my house to Carindale (My house was at the back of the complex, so still a bit to get there), and if you can afford it, I say make it your home. If I was ever to buy a house, Carindale would definitely be the place.

Burke Street is rather quiet, although does suffer from the main road (Depending how close you live to it), there is a large park that a lot of people go for. I never really met the neighbors, however during my last Christmas in Coorparoo, I sent out a Christmas card with some chocolates, there were a few neighbors that were rather graceful about it and gave me and my housemate some chocolates too.
In the Google maps, you will see a white, run down house on the very end by the main road, it does not look like that anymore. It's all built up and has people living there (And you can see my Christmas tinsels on my old house.) Never had any problems with the neighbours, so it was rather a good place to live.

I lived in Coorparoo for two years, around the Burke Street area, it was sad to have left but my experience there was rather good. Nice neighbourhood, not far from Woolworths, Pizza hut is right down the road (I lived behind it, so it was great just walking over and buying it. There were some robberies during 2016 of stores like the Cheesecake shop or Pizza Hut, but overall, Coorparoo is a very lovely place to live in, it feels safe to be walking around at night.
