I have recently checked the suburb out as based on the previous review. Yes, I found the suburb to be quite pleasant, green and quiet, with houses on big block on lands. Given it central location... being close to Parammatta (7km), City (14km), world class entertainment areas such as Homebush (2km), emerging employment centres such as Macquarie Park (6km), and shopping centres such Rhodes and Top Ryde, it is a surprisely affordable. The suburb appears to go thru a transformative phase.. where a large number of older homes replaced by newer and more attractive homes... obviously taking advantage of the surprisely (Sydney standard) big allotments. You can see so much up-size to the suburb. I was told this area used to be home to a fair number of social housing... probably with it proportional share of social issues but you can see this has been remediated with a large number of old social housing stocks sold off by the government, knocked down, and replaced by newer private homes. This is quite evident as you drive thru the suburb.Overall, a surprisely nice package for the price.
