Hi and welcome
Firstly you need to decide how far you want to travel for your job and then you can start to narrow the suburbs down.
I understand that the public transport system is good. Not sure about the crime rate and what else do you need to know?
You might want to have a look at:
www.ourbrisbane.com.au

You can also have a look at
www.realestate.com.au

I am sure that you will get plenty of good advice on here, good luck.
