Campbelltown is a great place to raise children. There are many playgrounds and parks along the linea park. Also fantastic to go for a bike ride to TTP or to the city!! It got a Par 3 golf course ( http://www.geoffheathgolf.com.au/ ) which is placed in a lovely area! There are supermarkets close by and McDonalds for those who like junkfood. Great for youth, with free movies in the park and other facilities organised by the Campbelltown City council. This link show some good places and spaces :)

The negative aspect of Campbelltown is that a few areas are not as attractive and that most of the houses all look the same (cream brick houses). We can see some new houses being build, which is good :) But, the beautiful areas add up for the negative ones. Especially the areas along the linea park. The lochiel Park new development is also an exciting project that is coming along really well. The green village with designer two-storey houses, dams, parklands, a little playground, excersise track and a community garden, looks fantastic and will even look better when people start moving in :)

We are very happy here in Campbelltown, and recommend it as it is a good place to live, affordable and close to city and even closer to Norwood, The Parade and Magill Rd

Cul-de-sac with not much traffic. Next to park with playground and BBQ area.
Upcoming area close to the city and universities. Easy and fast to drive to city via Hawker Street and War Memorial Drive. Bus stop close by. Nice local cafè (Hawker Street Cafè) only minutes away and lokal Foodland and Chemist close by. Pub in Hawker St (have not visited yet).
Community Garden in Green St and several parks in the area to go for walks and enjoy with the kids.

It would be great to have some more cafès, restaurants and shops. A gym would be nice too (not sure if there is one in this area?) A plus is that it is very close to city, Nth Adelaide and Queen St. with many great facilities!
