I dont understand some of the negetive comments made.
Old railway station? Its basically brand new!
Scrubby main st? All new paving, planting, parks, updated library, new signage! Sorry, what part of that is scummy?
Nothing licensed ? Bricies pub and the Moo Bar are obviously not good enough!
Maybe these people should open their eyes and really see how lucky they are.
Honestly, i love Mooroolbark. I have one child at Mooroolbark East Prinary which is one of the best schools in the eastern suburbs and my other child is at Mooroolbark College which is wonderful. Good disapline, little bullying, extensive range of classes.
The shops, although not numerous are unique and friendly. More small town than suburbia with everything from delies to the wool shop and even a cobbler!
We are also less than 5 mins from chirnside shopping centre that has Target and Kmart
We must be the capital of eateries from restaurants to take away.
I grew up here and since have lived in 3 states and numerous suburbs and can hands on heart say that we have the best place to live.
No suburb is crime free but we are pretty low down in the crime stats.
There is always plenty of social activities too. The community centre is well run and boasts semi annual theatre productions as well as many classes and plenty for kids to do as well.
I guess some people will whinge no mater what.
My only grumble is The Terrace shopping centre which is old and tired, however i believe that it is to be fixed up soon, other than that
Complete thumbs up from me
