We bought a house about 5 years ago here in bardwell valley and absolutely love it! We moved here from Dulwich Hill in the inner west and couldn't be happier. it is surrounded by beautiful parklands and the creek. We love going for 'bush' walks after work or to the park to feed the ducks on the weekend. The air is fresh and we get many native birds in our backyard. It is also super quiet and peaceul. We are close to the airport yet this suburb is not directly under a flight path so plane noise is minmal and infrequent. I find all our neighbors are really friendly. People say hello when u go out for walks. We love the fact that you feel like you're somewhere else yet only 12 km from the city. Also close to the inner west. I also love that we are close to so many amenities. There is a very large new woolies at nearby wolli creek and lots of new restaurants opening there. I don't know why neighboring arncliffe gets such a bad rap. we frequently go there for local groceries which are half the price of the supermarkets and there are some great takeaway restaurants there. We have always found people to be really friendly and polite there. I feel very safe living here, much safer than in the inner west (which by the way has a higher crime rate than here). Anyway, bardwell valley is worth having a look at and I honestly can never imagine living anywhere else.
