Kenwick, WA 6107

Family friendly area, close to everything in Perth. Very affordable and safe.

Lived here for about 10 years and never had a problem, always walk to the shops, parks or train. Neighbors are friendly, everything you need is within 10minute drive and 16minutes on train to CBD.

the local shops have all you need and often open late. Has a library, private and public primary schools and a private high school.
the suburb sits bang in the middle of albany hwy/tonkin hwy/roe hwy and welshpool rd. So its easy to get out or in any direction.
Its a small suburb, i live on the east side and we've had very little trouble (much better than other suburbs i've lived in - and i've been in more expensive suburbs). We know all our neighbors well and are friends with some of them. I have heard from a few people that the west side of kenwick (nearer train station) has more crime incidents. its a small suburb, yet it has 2 bottle shops!
I would recommend you choose carefully where you buy/rent inside kenwick, some area's are almost semi-rural or typical quaint suburbia but there are pockets of really bad areas. its is certainly worth talking to the neighbors to find out what the street is like.

only insurance gone up in this area

Very peaceful and close to the highways, train station and shops. Very close to Carousel.
