Mt Gravatt is a post WW2 area close to city. Houses vary from older timber framed on stumps to new (especially on elevated sites - views of city).
A mixture of service industries and retail (Garden City) along Logan Road.
Close to Griffith Uni campuses and TAFE college.
Search www.realestate.com.au for houses to give you an idea of what the area is like.

Re: mount gravat area
I used to live there - its the only place in suburban Brisbane that I have seen a gang beat someone up. But the shopping centre there is very good.
Take that how you wish.

Personally I would not live there by choice but a lot of people do. Think Milton Keynes.

Thanx Fuzzy & ABC, found it in the Police website.
Sh*t can happen anywhere but gangs are best off being avoided.
Stabbing, Mt Gravatt: A 16-year-old male is assisting police following the stabbing of two men in the car park of the Garden City Shopping Centre, Mt Gravatt around one o'clock this morning. The victims, both 21 years old, were taken to the Princess Alexandra Hospital with non life-threatening injuries. One of the victims received several stab wounds, while the other received less serious cuts to his back. It is believed the stabbing occurred following a confrontation between two groups in the car park.

Liveable? Like anywhere, the good can be mixed with the not so good.
