Makkede

I've lived in Bassendean for 10 years and have lived and rented in many different suburbs in Perth. What I love about Bassendean is the friendly people and the neighbourly feel about the entire area. I live very close to the railway station and use it every day and regularly use it at night and I have NEVER notived any smell of urine or felt unsafe there and I should know as I am a person with a visual disability and don't drive so use Bassendean train station all the time to get to work (the city) which takes 14 minutes! There are always friendly railway security and I use the train to travel at night to visit friends, go to the city and you can travel anywhere in Perth using the great bus system-the Swan Valley, Morley Galleria; catch the train to Bayswater, 2 stops from Basso and hop on the 98/99 circle route and travel to any University or hospital in Perth-it's fantastic for public transport. Lots of leafy green parks, central shopping with Coles and Woolies, Gloria Jeans and Subway, schools, new public library, local doctor, dentist and vet, 2 local delis that stay open to 9p.m and 11p.m, what more could you ask for? As for house sale prices, less than 10 kms drive from the city, how cheap to buy in-must be the best kept secret in Perth. If you don't have much money, buy your first house here, you won't regret it-I did and love living here-in the leafy green suburb of Bassendean.
