I rent a residential unit with Housing NSW here in Berkeley West. The area is OK, but the contractors who are supposed to maintain the property of these Housing NSW Residential Units leave very much to be desired !!! They mow the grass (We don't call it "lawn" ) and are supposed to do weeding and trimming the hedges, clear the gutters, etc., etc., etc.,but they do not clean up the grounds at all after what they do, leaving all of the mess for the elderly and disabled Tenants to try to clear up leaves, twigs, branches, etc., etc., etc. !!! These premises just are left a real "mess" !!! The local Housing Authorities and the Contractors hired by them just seem to accept the "low standards"of those who are supposed to do the work !!!

There is a Bus-Stop right outside the gate and we Tenants often get comments from people waiting for the bus and other passers-by saying that the buildings look all right from the outside but the grounds and "garden-beds", etc., definitely and certainly leave a lot to be done to clean up the place, add some colour, and plant some long-lasting flowers, etc., that are suitable for this area !!!
