Reviews of Djugun, WA
"Was a great place, now it will be like Port Hedland and Karratha full of miners and fly in / fly out workers"
Broome in general was a great place and Djugun was one of the safest areas of Broome but now the town has a cancer called Woodside/WA Government. There Gas plant will turn Broome into a mining town full of Orange/Yellow workers running it and the local business will suffer even more than they are trying to employ workers.
Might be good if you want to invest in property as once the mine starts house prices will be out of reach for the avg person and you will make a packet in rent.
It's a shame that this will happen as Broome was once a great place for families. To bad the shire never wanted it to change when they should have headed further down the tourist path now they are being forced the mining path. Silly Silly Shire.

- Good if you want to invest to make money on rent and property increase

"Great Place"
So much character, history and unique architecture. Family friendly, beautiful beach, great fishing and surprisingly lots to do for a small town. The tourist season gets pretty hectic but that's the price you pay to live in paradise, everyone want's to experience it.

"not a safe place to live"
its a quiet town, but once the sun starts setting it can be considerd as the most dangerous town in australia, house getting broken ito is something common and cars damaged and burnt, if you have a scooter it would be stolen, it would have been a great town to invest and live in if it was safer, i wouldnt recomend anyone to invest without staying in broome for quite a while.

Ok. What is best area to live in Broome....?
"The lost pearl town"
It used to be a multicultural family town with home where the gardens were the must important part of their life having parties and playing music... It used to be a pearl town
Now it is a ???? with big tin-shed with windows as house. Not more space for gardens or old architecture, Broome style is gone with the soul and their hart to let place to greed and more greed: Average price for their tin-shed is around $800.000... It is a shame old Mac Alpine house were so beautiful!!!
Living prices are so high that it is not possible for them to find good staff for their shops or for theiir staff to smile about. So, they go with unprofessional people who just come for few month or a few weeks. That result to a very poor service and impossible to find a regular good restaurant to eat....

"Cable Beach - Great place to invest"
Cable Beach is now virtually a suburb of Broome and is only 7 kms from the town centre. Being so close to Broome CBD is a bonus for this town which is one of the most popular tourist beaches in WA. Cable beach has very varied tides and offers over 22 kms of white sandy beach and very blue water, with camel rides being popular with locals and tourists alike. Cable Beach has a shopping centre nearby and younger students can attend the Cable Beach Primary School and travel into Broome to attend high school. Naturally the beach is a big draw card to the area and most of the employment in the area is in the resorts with tourist season being very busy. The climate is hot and humid with a wet and a dry season and the area has its fair share of tropical cyclones. It is around this time that swimmers should take great care as the deadly box jellyfish makes its appearance from November to the end of March. People can also gain work in Broome or out in the mines and make Cable beach their base but be warned property prices in this area are very high in comparison to other areas.

Ok, We were looking for our last house and this area was slightly lower cost compared to Cable beach..... How about Crime rate and Kind of people live there? We do`nt want loud music playing people .....
