Duncraig, WA 6023

Lived in Duncraig for more the 25yrs and know the area very well. High standard of living in this suburb developed in the 80's with large blocks and many homes renovated or rebuilt to a high standard. Every possible amenity you think of is close. It has a village vibe and very popular with all age groups with many young families who have moved in. The new micro-brewery "Rocky Ridge" at Marri Rd shops is a huge hit as is the numerous cafes & coffee shops & restaurants in the area to choose from. Sporting grounds & parks are in abundance (tennis, bowling, footy, soccer, cricket, baskeball & heaps of activities for kids including the new $6m skate park next to the tennis courts on Warwick Rd

Love at first sight when I moved to Perth years ago and finally made the decision to buy in Duncraig. Lots of young families, retirees, DINK's etc. Friendly people in local pubs, close to excellent beaches to suit a range of preferences. Whatever lifestyle anybody seeks, can find in Duncraig.

I have lived and worked in Duncraig for 11 years. We have a very special community here of caring people. Our schools are highly rated, it’s a very leafy suburb with many parks and playgrounds, small neighbourhood shopping centres, quality cafes and we have a farmers market - a great place to meet up on a Saturday morning. Easy access to the freeway and close proximity to Greenwood or Warwick train stations. Perfect suburb for young families.

Close to beach, great schools, love it.

I have been living here with my young family for a year and we're packing up and out. It is a tired old suburb with nothing to do, and zero opportunities for children. No good schools, no cultural life, no events, no opportunities. There are so-called bogans and chavs getting drunk and yelling every Friday/weekend. Drugs is a problem.

We have lived in Duncraig for 8 years. Bought our house here because the block was big and the trees are even bigger. Fantastic bird life. It's a very quiet suburb with all the amenities and facilities, beautiful parks and clean streets. Only 7 or 8 minutes walk to Greenwood station. Less than 5 km to Sorrento Beach. Honestly cannot say anything negative about living here.

Duncraig is a fantastic suburb for families, great schools and childcare, easy access to freeway, city, Joondalup. Great parks, including carine open space

Area is old and run down, local shops have had no work to keep up with the times. A lot of bogans. Barely any street lights.

After a thorough research (I even made Excel documents to compare all the aspects-crime rates etc.- of the candidate suburbs), we bought our first home in Duncraig last year and we love it here.
I mainly shop at Whitfords shopping mall which is very modern and nice. We’ve got two local IGAs and it’s so convenient when you need to buy a couple of things you’ve forgotten to buy from the mall.
I work in East Perth and it takes about 35mins in the rush hour, otherwise 20mins!
It’s a family friendly neighbourhood and I’ve heard lots nice things about the schools in the area so I can’t wait to send our future kids to local schools.
At first, we considered Padbury, Kingsley and some other more affordable areas but I’m so glad we picked Duncraig.

Close to the beach, close to schools this is a great suburb to live and is always adapting.
