The Brisbane Inner City Lifestyle:
From the Botanic Gardens, running tracks and walking tracks on the river, Brisbane's inner city suburbs aren't just a place to work, as more and more Brisbanites are favouring the amenity and convince of inner city living over a more traditional suburban lifestyle. Within the last five years, the number of people living in the inner city has risen by an impressive 20 percent, and with world-class projects like Queens Wharf being completed, it's only a matter of time before Brisbane launches into the stratosphere.
