"Home sweet home"
I've grown up in Croydon Hills and have nothing bad to say! Only 5 minutes from Eastlink, it's still close enough to the city and other areas.. but maybe I'm used to the drive? I go to uni in Berwick and by using Eastlink also, it only takes me 30 minutes to get there.
The main shopping area would be Eastland, only 5 minutes away also. Knox Shopping Centre is not too far away either.
Eating out is pretty good - mostly a lot of Thai and Indian places around.
Can often be frustrating when wanting to go out at night and can't drive.. its an expensive taxi ride home from the city!
I worked at a local Pharmacy and gradually become familiar with all the local residents who are all very friendly.
I went to a private primary school and high school and had the best experience at both.
I would say it is ideal for families with children. There's a lot of space and numerous parks in the area. There's quite a decent variety of private and public schools.
A very quiet suburb but sometimes disrupted by troublesome youths.
All in all, I find it a great suburb to live in!
