Parkwood

"Once posh now gosh Parkwood"

Been in Parkwood 11 years & watched it turn into the Labrador toilet overflow I actually can't wait to get out before it turns into an Inala like suburb. Kids are left to run riot causing through peoples yards all over the street, traffic problems.

Now not to mention the hoons speeding round destroying what ever they can. We have hoon central on our street where they meet at the local mechanics HOME shop then they roar up & down the street round the suburb to late night early morning.

Drug dealers, makers & users leave needles out laying on the streets when the cook the batches of drugs it stinks & the smell hangs round for days gets stuck in your clothes etc. AT least your know you're safe once a year the police patrol annually in the beginning of March. Neighbours usually cause all sorts of problems either by being stuck up or attack you for no reason.

There are pockets of good areas in Parkwood you just sometimes have to look harder to find them. From what I've seen the area I live in is not reflective of the overall suburb but pockets within cause a bad rep for the rest.

Despite claims to the contrary most areas of Parkwood take at least 15-30 minutes to get to the beach depending on traffic.

Great for

  • Sometimes quite & peaceful
  • Hoons often keep you entertained

Not great for

  • At times unsafe neigbourhood street urchins
  • Hoons everywhere mostly Fri Sat & night b4 & on public Hols
  • The pollution from industry & fireplaces is bad

I have NO idea where in parkwood you live! I have lived here 12 years and love it! such a friendly street, yes the streets where the uni students park are mainly dirty rentals. But the rest is beautiful!
