Nice street, most people are friendly and like a chat. There is a bit of traffic from people using it as a thoroughfare, as well as the bus passing through, so if you have kids, keep this in mind. Young families live alongside retirees and uni students. Some music/party noise but is only rarely and is generally turned down by midnight.

Be prepared for some dodgy street parking in residential areas, and parking along the strip of shops on Watsonia Rd is next to impossible during peak hours (and if you're lucky to get a spot, good luck getting out). Can hear hoons sometimes at night doing burn outs. Otherwise, good little suburb with excellent public transport access and close to shopping.
