"Very little community vibe"
Spent six months living here, quiet and relatively safe in comparison to what people say. Everyone sticks to themselves, owns massive dogs that
are never walked and generally used
for ‘security’. Walking the streets isn’t nice because of the aggressive type barking and feels like you’re being watched by community members. Conversation is either about crime or conspiracy theories…
Public transport is one bus a day, usually takes an hour to get into Tsv. Few decent shops around for basic life needs. Limited restaurants/night life. Pretty dusty place in the dry season. Prettier in the wet.
As well are you still living in that area or have moved away ?.
I moved away six months ago, and much closer in town now which I really enjoy. It is a really odd suburb and I found myself frequently visiting Bushland Beach and inner Townsville suburbs - almost daily.
Im sure it would be a great place to live for some people but just not my family. I wouldnt recommend it unless you had friends/family in the area or enjoy isolation. Hope this makes sense.
"Easy living in Hermit Park"
Plenty of parking, close to restaurants and beautiful old Queenslanders. People are concerned about crime but it’s pretty quiet. Lots of dog parks near by! Cute coffee shops. Close to main roads, yet traffic is very manageable.
Who lives here?
- Professionals
- Singles
- Families with kids
So you would not advise people to move to that area ?
