Solid all-rounder suburb that’s decently-located & highly safe, but is getting up there in price for houses these days – yet represents quite good value for apartments/units.
Reviews
One of Sydney’s more eclectic, bustling ‘hub’ suburbs, Bondi Junction is packed with amenities & is conveniently located, but high house & unit prices and some severe traffic issues rank amongst several black marks for living here.
Dodgy no more, Palm Beach has morphed into a high-end, swanky beachfront hub of continued development while still retaining its inherent natural beauty. Shame about those prices & traffic, though.
On the fringes of Sutherland Shire, Loftus combines a small-country-town feel with roomy housing, public transport connectivity & bushland surroundings.
Eclectic suburb home to excellent amenities with an international element can cater for both the high and lower ends of town, although traffic remains one of its main red flags.
A hinterland vibe without sacrificing too much in the way of distance, Mudgeeraba has a unique character that some will find lovely & others mildly boring – but is undeniably pretty.
Good-value, mid-tier Gold Coast suburb provides a ton of amenities & great greenery, and is far better nowadays than its past reputation.
Tucked-away western suburb is surprisingly peaceful and well-priced, although it’s freestanding homes only on the table here.
A versatile, solid all-rounder suburb, Ashmore provides a highly central location & a good range of amenities, though both drivers and younger adults will encounter some issues here.
Solid mid-tier Sydney suburb with central location & plentiful amenities is traffic-heavy and lacking in greenery.
