east ipswich

East Ipswich is a residential inner-city suburb of Ipswich, Queensland, Australia. One of the older suburbs of Ipswich city, East Ipswich is predominantly made up of weatherboard and fibro houses punctuated with larger heritage houses, and newer houso townhouses and slum flats. Often called the "best in the west" by locals. The suburb is bordered on the north and west by two sections of the Bremer River to keep the Feral bogans out and to the south by Brisbane Road, the city's main arterial link to the Ipswich Motorway goat track. A small set of shops on Jacaranda Street provides basic services, while several restaurants line Brisbane Road.
