Myself, my husband and 3-year-old daughter moved from Manly to Como in January and we absolutely love it here. We bought a 4 bedroom house for the same price as a unit in Manly. It's a very friendly, quiet and left suburb with great bushwalks and water views. It is close to the Royal National Park and easy to get to the south coast, which we love. It takes 30 mins on the train to Central from Como so it's an ideal commuting suburb. There is also plenty of shopping nearby, Westfield Miranda is a 10-minute drive. Cronulla beach is 25 mins drive. The only downside is that there is no nightlife - but we're not bothered by that. It's a great suburb for young families.
