We have lived in Leichhardt for 4 years and it has been a great place to raise our family. With nice locals and neighbours we can rely on. After the floods we were inundated with locals offering support and help, although we were not affected directly, our neighbours were, It was sad but it brought us closer as we all worked together to bring back normality. What we love about Leichhardt is that it is walking distance to the local Newsagant, Doctors, Chemist, Post office, Convenience store and only a short stroll across the one mile bridge to the IGA, Trade Secret, Chemist Wearhouse, a 24 hour gym and even town (I did this regularly while pregnant, that's how close it is). Every time we go to one of the many CLEAN parks there is always someone wanting to chat or just so hi. We have never had a problem with crime and we regularly go for walks of the night time and without a doubt if we see someone on our travels we are always greeted with at least a smile. Other things we love about Leichhardt: It's so convenient with Schools, Day care and welcoming playgroups all close by. The recreation is great with a golf course, footy field, tennis courts the local pool and many parks. If you don't have a car it's no problem as there is great public transport also. Overall Leichhardt is a friendly, clean, leafy green suburb.
