"A great place for young families"
A lovely, friendly place to live. Wakerley is only 5 minutes from the bay. Every weekend you have the choice of 2 excellent markets to attend which are only minutes away. There are many great schools close to wakerley. So many young families already live here. Wakerley has a fantastic community spirit.
Who lives here?
- Families with kids
We've had no reports of internet access diffuculty from our tenants in Wakerley, the only reports of water damage came from properties on the other side of Manly Rd, & they were those that had existing building defects...
May I aks which streets might be on the "other side of Manly Rd" as I am very new to the area? I have also read here about aircraft noise and break ins??
Thanks for the reply
We have experienced no Internet trouble in our area. Only problem is optus doesn't service our area , so you will have to go with telstra on explore the options of another service provider. We have had no issues with crime, however I do recommend you get a dog. Planes do fly overhead, but I have never had an issue with it. One other thing - make sure your mobile phone works in your house before you buy a particular property.
Internet access is a real issue in this area. Mossvale in particular. It has taken us over two years to get ADSL. Telstra wireless internet works ok, but is not the cheapest.
Are there still heaps of those exclusive bretheren sect in Wakerley? They're used to be quite a few houses where they used to practise communal living.
Internet speed is atrocious during peak times, slower than dial up!! There is a spate of break ins from time to time (as with most nicer suburbs) it pays to be friendly with your neighbours, we all look out for each other's houses when someone is away on holidays
I would like to know whether internet access/speed is a problem in Wakerley? Also I want to know whether any streets had flooding during the recent January floods?
