Royal Park

"The "REAL" Roayl Park"

Royal Park is a joke! Most houses are all built on top of one another, House windows are in some cases only an arm’s length apart. No yards for kids to play & the few small scattered playgrounds/parks here & there in the new area, are a joke. Social problems will escalate - Everyone hearing everyone else's business, listening to your neighbour’s arguments, loud stereos & barking dogs etc etc... Where will the kids play? Not in their own backyards, cause most you could not swing a cat in! Kids will end up in the street and cause more problems. Some rental properties are not looked after, a lot of refugees & some have no idea of community living & congregate in groups... Yep If you like living on top of one another then this is the place. You also have to listen to Dogs barking 24/7 day & night, that’s the norm because nobody gives a damn. Cars screeching around all hours,. Royal Park has limited police presence & graffiti is common.
Bloody gov /developmental planners need to be shot, People should not have to live like this. What has happened to the Aussie dream of a home with a backyard for kids to grow up in? Or Safe communities where people respect each other and their properties? Apart from the fact that house prices are high, the little bit of land that is allocated is not big enough for a typical Aussie backyard. The dream has finally come to an end! Forget having some grass and planting a nice big tree for shade. Most streets look like little dog boxes all in a row. Some gutters actually touch each other, Forget trying to get to your own gutters to clean them. A fire hazard as well, because if just one of these house catch fire, it would start a chain reaction because they are so close together. Parking is a joke, streets are narrow and with limited land, visitors park on the streets which cause problems when trying to get past parked cars (DONT EVEN MENTION FOOTY DAYS!!!). West Lakes Boulevard is an accident waiting to happen. With the Footy Park and West Lakes having limited parking areas people park on both sides of the road and making it impossible for one car to get past let alone 2 at the same time. Council should have though a bit about this as it causes major disruptions at times. As far as the nice pavements and green grass (at the moment) this will end up just like rubbish- unkept grass, trees dying, footpaths nonexistent & roads full of potholes. Council don’t give a dam once the area is established. Newer area is an investors dream- High rental prices and lots of renters all looking for somewhere to live. Good luck

Great for

  • West Lakes Mall

Not great for

  • AAMI stadium & parking-commuting issues
  • Not very safe
  • Parking / traffic on footy days
  • Shady characters - crime
  • Too industrious

Who lives here?

I wish you could review other areas as well. We need more people that also tell the bad side of these suburbs. Thanks :)
