Fortitude Valley: Those "wierdos" aren't dangerous
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Valley used to have a (deserved) bad reputation at night many years ago but that is no longer the case. There is a police station in the mall, very active backpacker accomodations and as the Valley has become more popular there are more people on the street at night which means less lonely alleys.

    The Valley is more relaxed in clothing and attitudes which is why it is the "alternative" capital of Brisbane. Throw away your blue jeans, collared shirt and brown dress shoes which is the norm in Brisbane. Put on some runners and spend the night dancing to some modern beats.

    Fortitude Valley: Fortitude Valley - Safer than houses
  • Tip Rating:
  • You might feel that many people say the Valley is dangerous. While there are a few 'weirdos' generally people will help you if you need a hand - don't expect the same when you go into the City.

    The Valley is well policed and very well lit - Don't expect the same in the City. You'll find nicer, friendly more open people in the Valley than the City.

    Don't miss it because you heard bad things!

    Fortitude Valley: Its not that bad!
    Went out to the Valley on Friday night, despite being warned by my parents to not, under any circumstances, go. Went out to a couple of clubs and had a fantastic time, and nothing bad happened at all. There are plenty of Police around, as well as a Police Beat in Chinatown, and the place has a nice atmosphere. So the moral of the story? Go to the Valley, you've got nothing to lose except the awesome time you won't have if you don't go. And don't, under any circumstances, tell your mother.
