I have a long history with this prestigious suburb. I have lived in many other parts of the country and in other parts of the world. I would say that one of the nicest places I’ve lived in is Kew. It is quiet, it has some magnificent properties, it is close to the city. Getting around is not any more difficult than getting around most parts of Melbourne now, the traffic is a nightmare. It is a pretty green suburb and has managed to retain beautiful gardens both privately and publicly. Although the influx of new huge properties being built on small blocks with little room for gardens is changing the ‘leafy suburb’ image a bit. That is a pity, from my point of view and of many others that I know. It is a safe place to live. There is a huge variety of excellent schooling options in the area, private and government. It isn’t a place if you want a huge nightlife but it is close to the city, so the nightlife is there if you want it. After a big night out you can come back to this gorgeous quiet place to rest and recuperate. I love it and the Kew locals are friendly and polite! No first world complaints from me about Kew.
