best bet is to work out how far you want to be from somewhere (the city, the bayside etc etc) and to pick suburubs from there.
www.ourbrisbane.com has a whole section on each of the different suburbs, including who mostly lives there (couples/familys/students/retirees/mix), the median rental and buying house prices, general suburb info, and even comments from people who live/lived there.
we narrowed it down to about 15 suburbs before we got here, then after driving round a few of them narrowed it down again to 5-6, going on what we saw and the houses that were avilable in our price range at the time.

Were heading to Brisbane in three weeks to do a validation trip, and we booked on line a holiday home on the west side only 20-30 mins from CBD, we did a little re-search and Expats have said it is a :beer family area with plenty of parks, schools etc I will post good,bad when we get back.
