"Nice but boring"
Pymble is a quiet,safe conservative area. It was desirable in the 1960's but has dropped down the rankings as it's not cool, interesting or unique. There's little to distinguish it from many other upper Nth Shore suburbs, but train access to the city is good.
It's very white, Anglo, and old fashioned. The politics reflect that, delivering the safest Liberal seat in NSW.
The real estate market confirms that. House prices have been falling behind the lower Nth shore and East for decades. It's full of nice, middle class families, looking for a safe, staid lifestyle.
If that's your thing then Pymble is for you.
Kids get out quickly one they reach university as the area is offers little for 20 and 30 somethings.
So the community skews heavily towards the elderly. The services and facilities move in unison to accommodate the increasingly elderly population, thereby exacerbating the suburbs profile. There are some nice aged care facilities and more being built.
