"Waterside Estate in Cranebrook - perfect for families"
We have recently moved in Waterside and we have found the area to be very safe, clean, green, friendly & quiet. There are so many beautiful walks to go on by the lakes and wonderful parks for little children. It is a very family friendly estate & we are very happy to be out of the hustle & bustle of Sydney. The only thing I have to complain about is the local shopping - Cranebrook shops don't seem safe or nice at all so we have to go into Penrith or Emu Plains for groceries/ shopping. Although that will all be fixed once Jordan Springs opens up their new shopping centre & cafe on the lake - just what the area needs. Then it will be 100% perfect. LOVE the lifestyle at Waterside!

Any chance you are still at waterside and can recommend a good primary school? We are just about to move to the area and I'm having trouble finding a good school.
Could you please advise me if Hindmarsh Street is a good street?
"Highly Regarded Suburb in Blacktown Council"
This suburb is excellent in the fact that is very close to great amenities - Great schools, shops and transport. The best thing I have found is being so close to Rouse Hill & the Hills Region (Castle Hill etc) however on the other side of Stanhope Gardens are suburbs that aren't as highly regarded so there are good and bad parts of this area. It is, after all still a Blacktown suburb and does have its pockets of crime and (sorry) scary people. It has become what I would say is over priced in recent years also, but that does make the resale value 5 stars because of this growth. You get a mixture of people here - some really friendly, and others not so. I live in a quiet section in a friendly street and have found the area to be quite child & framily friendly which is a real plus.

Quite accurate I would say.
Issue with Cranebrook shops is its own by the local council its not a private own shopping center so until someone wishes to buy it and fix it up etc it always be like that unfortunately. Its just a milk bar quick style shops where you grab few items at the local IGA or chemist (post office) etc I never consider it a proper shopping complex.
