Lidcombe, NSW 2141

Have call police and noisy neighbours yelling at night . Have some people pee on the street and parks always have rubbish and dirty.

Large blocks with new homes being built and more affordable than neighbouring Inner West Suburbs.
Many apartment options from older style buildings to modern high rise complexes.
Good for families and great shopping at Lidcombe Marketplace shopping centre.
Close to Olympic park precinct and centrally located to everywhere with excellent train and transport.
Highly recommended.

It has a lot of rubbish out the front of the apartments, and our outdoor furniture was stolen from our front yard inside our fenced property. Everyone has bars on their windows due to alot of break ins and crime. The parks are always filthy with rubbish and aren’t maintained.
The high rise apartments recently built have added to the traffic congestion which makes parking difficult.

I lived in Lidcombe for 40 years and moved to Melbourne in 2000. I used to come back regularly until 2010 when Mum passed. I went back for the first time in January and was absolutely gob smacked by what's happened. So much traffic apartment's everywhere and more under construction. Very little in the way of road upgrades and I cannot believe how much stuff is just dumped in front of the older units near the shopping centre. Dooley's has grown if you don't like Korean food you could be stu

convenient, safe

We live in the suburb for almost six years and we love to live here forever. Enjoy the calm life with all the amenities closer.

I've lived here for just under a year now, and I love it. The people are lovely, and the amenities are great.
It's a melting pot of cultures living harmoniously and it's also vibrant! You're also close to a huge range of interesting suburbs - all with their unique personalities. Location-wise, it's conveniently lodged between Parra and the city with a large train station.
So far so good!

Lidcombe is a suburb that has all the convenience of close propinquity to Flemington markets, Chullora shopping centre, Strathfield Plaza and a variety of other things, but it doesn’t feel particularly calm an atmosphere. There happens to be a swarm of industrial services here, so unattractive places scattered here and there. It is a major station - the terminal point, so I suppose overcrowding would a problem to some degree, but not to the extent of something like Strathfield. You’re better off going for the waterside suburb of Silverwater, where you can still manage to access 5e north shore via Strathfield station and all the amenities including top notch schools in Burwood, Strathfield, etc.

I really love the neighbourhood as my neighbours are so friendly and respect each other's privacy . It is convenient to go north south east west as we have as lidcombe station is a major station , lidcombe shopping centre is convenient as well , with Costco , lots of restaurants and Dooleys . The only thing is lack of good schools here . But overall location wise we are 25 minutes from CBD , 20 minutes from Paramatta we are living in all the centralize location . There are mainly Koreans and Chinese dominated area .

Lidcombe is well into a transformation phase with many new homes being built and young families moving into this once working class suburb. With some extensive unit development close to the station it offers many options for those wanting an affordable home within a half hour trip to the centre of Sydney. The rail link is excellent, offering easy access to the city and Parrramatta. It has moderate climate, not the oppressive heat of many outer suburbs. Land size is generous and well serviced by council. The shopping strip is well laid out and lends itself to being turned into a restaurant destination, especially on the southern side where a series of early shopfronts are still in use. It could be a very exciting outdoor dining area with some imagination. As it is is still has some charm. Some cute little streets are Bernard and Raymond on the southern side which are both within walking distance of the station. It is a great place to live with great public schools. Dooleys has taken over the northern side but they do provide local employment. This place is a real estate hot spot!
