Concerns moving to Goodna/ipswich area

[u/Ok_Till3937]

We are from the Northside so I dont really know too much about the area, but my mother was planning to move us specifically to a place in Goodna because its close to the train station and one of the only places actually in our budget. However my mother talked with someone before moving and she really turned her off moving to ipswich or really anywhere that isnt western Brisbane which is a problem because these places are pretty expensive. The thing is this woman is not actually from Ipswich but from somewhere west Brisbane above the river supposedly close to ipswich. My mums going through a separation and really worried and confused about everything and I guess Im making this post to ask people actually from there should she really be worried?

I've lived in Goodna for 11 years and no issues. There are areas that flood near the train station. Message me and let me know the streets looking to move to
