"Another name for convenience!"

A suburb that ticks all the right boxes for a first home buyer. Very well connected by road and rail and world class school and amenities close by!

"Bardia the worst places to live."

My plan was to rent a place in Bardia to stay close to my work place in the meantime do some exercise walking from Edmondson Park Station to Bardia to do an inspection for properties in Bardia first time.

The place is surrounded by jungle of trees with black snakes around the M5 and the train station and very noisy place.
Difficult to access by car or walking.
No playground or parks for children to spend time.
No public toilets.
Very small houses and very expensive to buy or rent just not worth it.
The school is far away from Bardia area.

Wow, thats a load of lies to deal with ! All the above comments are false and you clearly have some other intentions..Bardia is well connected by road and rail network and anyone who have visited this suburb knows what Im talking about. It have a huge play ground and park opening up soon (almost completed). World class school, an amazing shopping centre (Ed. Square) and half dozen super markets including Woolies, Coles, Aldi , Costco and Bunnings in less than 5 mins drive, what more you can ask for!

LOL, no one will believes this dude. This guy is obviously jealous. He probably missed out the opportunity in Bardia. He mostly likely lives in the area is not growing much with red belly. My advice is Work hard, save hard and follow the government masterplan! You will get there. Bad mouth is a wrong strategy!

He's not wrong when he says the houses are small and extremely overpriced

He's absolutely correct about the ridiculous house prices and small sizes

"Would I live at Bardia if I could pick again?"

We used to live in Alexandria and Kensington - apartments. Since we had children, we decided to move out of city area. From the beginning, we were sceptical about the south west area in term of security perspective as we had heard a lot of it. Since our apartment storages both in Erskinville and Kensington got broken in twice and my car windscreen got smashed once in our basement carpark; we wondered how worst it could be. Due to fact of the affordability and value of money, I justified myself to give it a go for South West Sydney. I managed to convince my wife to move there by investing additional $5k for advance technology CCTV in 2013. We bought it from Landcom at first release. We have been living here for more than 5 years so far. Overall, we are happy with it. To be honest, we still think it can be better in some area. Would I live at Bardia if I could pick again? Yes, I would live here again until my children going to High School.
I am trying to break it down fairly for you to make a decision. Please note that is my opinion only. I believe it is a fair and non-biased comment.
1. Sense of community – Average - Majority of neighbours are friendly, helpful and professional compared to when I lived in city area. Unfortunately, there is a small group people like to take advantage from others such as not willing to share cost of fencing. That is what I heard from my neighbours.
2. Multi culturism – Very Good - Surrounding with neighbours from Local Aussie, Chinese, Indonesian Chinese, Singaporean, Indian, Malaysian, South American.
3. Public Transport – Good - The train station is very clean and beautiful. Train every 15mins. The train station looks like up-market. My wife and I both travel separately to Parramatta and CBD to work. I used to drive to Parramatta but I have already given up. However, the parking of the train station is not enough to cater for the local. Fortunately, we could find many parking if we leave early before 7am and 7.30am.
4. M5 Motorway – Very good on weekend & Very bad on weekdays peak hours - 45-50mins to CBD on weekend only. Bad traffic at peak hours on weekdays.
5. M5 traffic noise – From bad to Good – It used to be really bad. For some reasons, the noise is slowly fading away. I guess it is probably because the new houses built around us is blocking the noise.
6. Security – Above average – we never have any issue in last 5 years – finger crossed. Unfortunately, we heard there were about 3 separate break and enter occasions between 2017 and 2018. All of them happened in the afternoon. The reason I claimed as “above average” is because we used to have more issues when we live around city area in 5 years period. All I can say is, please invest in security camera. Majority of “break and enter” incidents are without CCTV camera.
7. Childcare – From Bad to Good – Initially, there was only one child care called “World of Learning” near Denham Court. Now, there are more options. Ignite is a very beautiful centre open in 2019. Explorers is due to open soon near the big water tank area. All are new building. However, please put your name down earlier. Ignite is full now October 2019.
8. Primary school – Very good – I can say this is the most beautiful primary school I ever come across – Please note that you need to live in Bardia catchment area.
9. High School – N/A - Unfortunately, there is no high school in Bardia Estate.
10. Parks and playgrounds – Average – The park is average so far in “2019”. However, a very big new park is going to open soon in 2020/2021. Let’s see. Tips, we like to go to Mount Annan. It is about 20mins by car.
11. Road and Street Layout - Very Good – well planned by Landcom. Clean and organised. All roads and streets are straight and symmetrical. You cannot see an old house and electrical overhead poles in the middle of the suburb.
12. Grocery Shopping – Average for now – We go Aldi at Edmondson Park, Costco, and Coles at Willowdale. We can’t wait for the town centre to open soon.
13. Distance to Beach – bad – too far by car. If you are a beach goer, please go somewhere else.

I agree most of it. Except High School. We do have one of the best High Schools that is not far and only one station away. However, it is a selective school. It is called Hurlstone Agricultural High School.

I am adding a few things that Alex missed out.

14. Natural DisasterZones? - It is not classifiedas flooding zone. I used to live at Chipping Norton. It was very hard for us to get an insurance as it is consideredas flooding zone.

15. Restaurants & Cafes - There is a beautiful cafe located at the Ed SquareShowroom. It is called Daily Bean Cafe. The service is excellent. You can enjoy lazy Saturday Brunch that is nearby. We tend to go to Willow Thai Restaurant. Their pineapple fried rice is delicious. Sometimes, we go to Cabramatta for Pho noodleand Yum Cha in the morning. The only problem is the parking at Cabramatta. Therefore, the train station comes in handy for Weekend Cabramatta Adventures!

"World class public school + all bells and whistles of Edmondson park!!"

Bardia is a brand new suburb which lies very close to Edmondson park station (Walking distance to Ed park station) and boasts of a recently upgraded Bardia Public School which looks world class! https://images.app.goo.gl/uuemvdxYGsjQ8trA8

I live in the well planned, beautiful community of "Ingleburn Gardens" side of Bardia. You get all the benefits of Ed.Square shopping mall (Build in progress), train station near by and an amazing public school in your catchment..Smarter investment than Edmondson park / Leppington suburbs :)

"Beautiful suburb for everyone!"

The suburb is new and growing super-fast. The best parts are an amazing and newly upgraded school, the train station and upcoming Ed Square shopping district and all withing walking distances! We have moved recently to this suburb and loved it for what it offers. Being a new suburb, there are many new houses being constructed currently and it would be the norm for another couple years. We travel by train to the city for work and the travel times are quite acceptable for Sydney standards. we can't wait for all the construction works to finish in the suburb, it will be beautiful.

"Close to Everything!! Perfect suburb for families!"

Having just moved to Bardia, our young family felt home immediately. Family friendly suburb with great community feel, it's perfect for young families to settle down... With Edmonoson park train station close by, on going $50m upgrade to Bardia public school and $1billion+ Ed.Square town centre construction due to be completed in 2019, the future growth looks very rewarding! Fingers crossed :)
