Pros
- 20 min train into the city
- South Yarra, Prahan close by but far enough to be away from the noise and crows
- Leafy streets, safe, and quiet
- Numerous great cafes, eateries and shops on High St
-Great private and public schools in the area

Cons
- Unfriendly neighbours - some pompous and snooty people around which make it a little unwelcoming
- Congested roads and takes a long time to drive .. basically anywhere

Have been living in this area for over two years and have seen it change to become more and more trendy with more townhouses popping up everywhere. So many more cafes and eateries have opened up around the place. The neighbours are friendly, and it’s very safe and quiet. Nothing like taking the dog for a walk at the many parks scattered around. City link takes you to the city within minutes, the airport is a 20 min drive and you can drive to the happening and busy suburbs of Brunswick so easily but still away from the noise and crowd living there. The train is a 30 min ride into the city! You’ve got Strathmore high school next door - if you’re lucky enough to be in the zone. Love this area and think it’s the perfect place for young families. In my opinion, this is a gem compared to the south east suburbs which are so far from the city, and constantly congested.
