Reviews of Pemulwuy, NSW
"Family Frienddly but a few isolated incidents."
Alot of walkways, greenspace, cycleways, water. Peace on earth you would think? Not quite.
It is starting to become quite overcrowded. Traffic congestion is a concern in the morning and afternoon.
There are incidents of anti social behaviour. You hear the occasional burnout in the area.
People are not always courteous and are in a rush. Youths often frequent the place at night.
Prices have gone up significantly. In 2006, it cost about $700k for a 4 bed house and land package. Expect to pay double that now.
In a way, the people make or break the suburb.
Some people are quite arrogant and unfriendly. Almost like you're commiting a crime to smile at them.
You could live in a house for years without knowing your neighbour.

"Exceeded the expectation"
I've been living in this suburb for more than a few years now and Its an amazing experience. It ticks all the checkboxes for a family with a young kid. its so close to everywhere be iCBD, Paramatta, yet so peaceful, green and quiet suburb. I enjoy the cleanliness, Greenery , The lake, walkways, Bushwalking, Cyceling tracks and friendly neighbourhood. Pleasently surprised when I could actually see the Sydney harbour bridge from the top of the pemuwlwuy hill. So much to offer,overall 5 star rating

"Lovely Family Orientated"
The Pemulwuy Community and suburb is such a lovely place to be to eat, socialise and work. I work in Pemuwluy, the people here are so kind and welcoming, they have a track to fit in your cardio and a lake to overview the cute ducks when walking by. Very safe and comfortable place to be :)

"Pemulwuy is amazing"
We have been living in Pemulwuy for the past 8 years and it has been fantastic. Beautiful surroundings, peaceful neighbourhood, shops and much more.
One of the best suburbs in the west. I would not trade this area for any!!!! Your kids will love it. This area is one of its best and you cannot find one so close to Parramatta.

"Highest crime rate in NSW"
Please do not even consider this suburb . Brother bought a invesment unit and tenant who was a friend of mine had her car broken into 3 times and family who visited her got his Hilux stolen with all his tools . I did not learn from all this mess decided to buy a unit in same suburb . I got broken into in second level through the balcony . Our garage got hit 5 times . I lived in that damn suburb for 2 years and we had cops turning up constantly due to huge number of break-ins in the complex . Terrible suburb surrounded with car hoons . Disgusting experience ... Do not even consider you will be sorrounded by Smithfield and Greystance . Greystance has the highest crime rate "break-in" in the entire NSW .
We were robbed too. It's just too close to the ghetto suburbs around. We put up cameras because the strata wouldn't. We've caught lots of suspicious behaviour. Just doesn't feel safe and it's a shame because the potential is great, but it needs a gated entrance! We were even asked by Channel 7 news who rang out bell to ask if we saw a shooting. All way too much. Also in the last year the graffiti and litter seems to have increased. I wish this was different.
"Our garage got hit 5 times" - doesn't look real. looks like a family feud. which street are you on?
I do business all over Sydney and crime is everywhere you go. I have had conversations with many folk, whether it be North Sydney, Eastern Suburbs or the West, and they all experience the same problems as Pemulwuy.
I can assure you, Pemulwuy is not bad considering, and when you look at the positives, Pemulwuy is a fantastic place to live in, most long term residents will tell you that.

You're very unlucky
I live in Pemulwuy, and all surrounding neighbours are great and friendly
I understand when your neighbours are quite or nonverbal, it's strange to deal with.. I lived in places where the neighbours never even wavied if they saw you.. I hated that..
