Reviews of Parkwood, WA
"Quiet, Relaxed, Nice Neighbours"
Moved here 2 years ago, found it to be a nice, quite area with lots of families moving in, near to Canning River foreshore which is lovely for walks or coffee at nearby cafes and deli. Shelley and Canning park runs nearby and Riverton Leisure Centre

"Best of the Southern Suburbs"
I moved to Parkwood after living in some of the more leafy along the river suburbs and not really knowing much about Parkwood. I absolutely love living here. The people are all friendly there are options for local shops to choose from and there are many cycle walk pathways we take advantage of. There are also several parks and overall the suburb is quiet. Love Parkwood

"The quiet achiever"
Just on the border of Willetton and Riverton, this little known suburb is well serviced by schools, shops, transport and parks. Lots of families call it home as well as retirees who like a hit at the Whaleback Golf Course

"Perth’s most underrated suburb!"
We are going on our 4th year living in Parkwood and it has been absolutely wonderful. We have two young daughter who attend the local primary school which is lovely. Neighbours are friendly and it’s quiet and safe. Wouldn’t choose anywhere else!

"Proud to be resident in Parkwood"
We moved to parkwood before 2 years and we are proud that we made no mistake by choosing parkwwod. It's such a nice palce to live everything is very very near. Riverton Stckland shopping centre, Riverton Library, swimming, leisuareplex, childcare, Highroad full of many many shops, one side Roe highway is near, leach highway is near. I think it's a real hub. Very pleasant area to live in.
