Glenroy

"Dirty"

My husband and I moved here from the U.S. and this is the first place we have lived together. We live south of the Western Ring Road, north of Hilton Road and between Sydney Road and Widford Street. There are lots of older homes being demolished to make way for cheaply built townhomes/units. Our neighbors have filthy front yards with garbage flying around, long grass, and old cars parked in the street or on their lawns. I can't help but be disgusted by the fact I have to walk around or jump over trash while walking down the sidewalk. Our neighbors aren't friendly and don't say hello or acknowledge people walking by. People are sometimes very noisy with no regard for those of us who are trying to sleep at night. We seldom come across a nice elderly person willing to say hello or have a chat. The proximity to the city and shopping centers is great. Not sure about the schools as we don't have children. If it weren't for the troubles of packing and moving and the work we have put into our unit to suit our needs, we would be out of here to a better neighborhood.
