Patterson Lakes

"How can this possibly make # 1?"

I'm sure there are some nice parts but you have to get out of Patterson Lakes if you want to do anything. The smell from the water treatment drifts all the time and the stench is awful. People try to run you over crossing the street. Surrounded by 'upper class' bogans, screaming and cursing at each other and at their kids in the street. I'll be glad when we move.

Great for

  • Waterfront properties
  • Shops

Not great for

  • Bad smell from water treatment
  • Transport
  • Rude people

Some parts of the estate have narrow roads meaning lots of cars parked all over people's lawns ruining the atmosphere. Mosquitos have been a problem in summer due to nearby stagnant water and wetlands. Waterfront can be good, but try before you buy. Be aware of traffic noise near the freeway.

MrsFranks is clearly not a resident. As a resident of 20 years I can tell you that there is NO smell from the water treatment plant in Bangholme. I can also tell you that Patterson Lakes is a safe place to live, and many children play in the streets and are not run over. I have had no trouble from people disturbing the peace and find that our street is quite and noise free.

Patterson Lakes is not an estate. Harbour Town (is an estate) to the north of Patterson River borders with Chelsea Heights and with the Wannarkladdin Wetlands. The streets in this estate are not narrow. I know people that live in Harbour Town and they have made no complaints about noise from the freeway nor about mosquitoes.

Chowe, we were a resident long enough to know that we didn't want to live
there.

I'm sure there are nice areas in Patterson Lakes but it's definitely not the best suburb to live in Melbourne. We had to call the police on our neighbors it was smelly and noisy, maybe we just picked the wrong street. Anyways, we lived there long enough to know we didn't want to be there.

Most of Patterson Lakes is nice, there are many million dollar waterfront properties and many properties that are not waterfront that are also very nice and well kept. I would say that if what you are saying is true, then your street would be an exception to the vast majority of the suburb

MrsFranks

I'm sorry then. Your suburb is perfect. It should be #1!

"People try to run you over crossing the street. Surrounded by 'upper class' bogans, screaming and cursing at each other and at their kids in the street." It sounds as though you are describing a completely different suburb. You are supposed to write factual and accurate reviews. This review is neither of these

@3383035 Yes she is clearly someone who is telling stories that are not true and couldn't be further from the truth

kaye1

yes I agree with Chowss, must be a different Patterson Lakes.

I'm sure if you live in the water is nice but there's pretty crappy places near the shops. It makes me laugh how proud some people are of their area.
