Commentary

About 9km east of the CBD, Carina is an older suburb of Brisbane that was settled in the 1940s.

Surrounded by the neighbouring suburbs of Camp Hill, Carindale, Mount Gravatt East and Tingalpa, Carina is a thriving Brisbane suburb.

The housing styles in this suburb are mainly post-war weatherboard, as well as a selection of older Queenslanders with sweeping verandas.

Community infrastructure in this area is very good, with a major hospital only 10 minutes away and a number of doctors in the area.

There are also a number of private and government schools in the suburb, and Griffith University is about a 20 minute drive away.

Shopping facilities include Westfield Carindale, Westfield Garden City, and smaller shopping centres in Carina, Belmont and Mt Gravatt East.

The suburb has many walk and bikeways, parks, waterways, and includes the Clem Jones sports facility complex, which has an Olympic-sized swimming pool, gym, tennis and squash courts, and basketball courts.

Buses service the suburb regularly and the nearest railway station is in nearby Cannon Hill.

As the suburb has been established for some time, there is little vacant land left for either residential or commercial / retail development.
