Having retired and wanting to downsize and simplify our lives, we purchased a unit in Rhodes a year ago. While downsizing from a very large house to a fairly small apartment has been a challenge, we couldn't be happier with our riverchange. Rhodes is a great suburb, modern, yet with a community feel. It's fairly close to the city with good transport links. The shopping centre, eateries, cafés, parks etc. are all within a walking distance, so we hardly use our car. The public areas are better maintained than in many other suburbs, although Covid seems to have had an impact on the frequency of cleaning and gardening. The Promenade is a lovely walking track by the river, but there are quite a few others - one of our favourites is to the wetlands in the Sydney Olympic Park. Across the river is Wentworth Point (accessible by foot or a free shuttle bus) with its own small shopping centre and restaurants. All in all, Rhodes location and facilities are excellent. People are friendly, crime rate is low and the infrastructure keeps improving. Can't wait to see Rhodes Central finished and the area around the train station beautified.
