"Second generation Windalian"
I grew up in Windale and I am now a home owner here and raising my own children.
Windale has improved so much over the years. There are still a few areas that need improving but most suburbs have areas like that.
So many homes are privately owned now and majority of us take pride in the appearance of our homes. Majority have had some type of renovation done to them and with so many nicer homes here now it increases the street appeal and therefore raises the house values.
The by pass has been a huge bonus to us. We are so close to everything now and even the public transport is great. Buses that run through Windale will take you all over the place!
The local Schools are great. We have a public school and a Catholic school. Both receive alot of funding and the children have so many wonderful opportunities. The local high school is in the next suburb and within walking distance.
We have a great Football team (Windale Eagles) for juniors and seniors.
I love my neighbourhood. Most people here are super friendly and would do almost anything to help you.
I once put some freebies out on the front curb after a garage sale and people actually came and knocked on the door to double check that it was ok to take them.
