"Fantastic suburb"
Lovely quiet streets - the sort of place where you can let kids play out front with the neighbours and not have to worry. Great schools with teachers who care. The people are lovely. I read another review about racism, but we have lived there for 3 years now and never had an issue (my wife is from South America and looks a bit middle eastern). Most people seem genuinely nice and the area is increasingly multicultural, albiet still predominantly white. Great location - frequent trains to the city take around 40 min, 15-20 min drive to the beach, 5 minutes to Como pleasure grounds (excellent pool and park), 15 minute drive to Royal National Park, 5 min drive to Bunnings, Aldi, Coles etc. Jannalil shops are fine and improving (eg two new venues for evening drinks have opened up in the last year including a kid friendly sports bar), though there are still some empty shopfronts that I would like to see filled. The local shire has plans to plant heaps of trees along many of the streets in the near future, which will further improve the landscaping. All round fantastic.
