"has changed over last 16yrs"
We moved to hallett cove about 1995 and were excited with our new house. the area has close schools for pre-school to year 12. Shops were average back then until the shopping centre was built which has given a big lift for the area with a very good supply bus transport located in car park.
we enjoyed our years at hallett cove and our 2 children grew up in the area.
But...all those children that were going to school when moved to area have now grown up and now have cars. we certainly noticed the difference from then to now - much more noisier where we lived (about 1km north of shopping centre), can here many vehicle wheel screeching during the summer nights, more buses so more noise and plenty of rev heads up our street.
but that is not why we moved - neighbours aaarrrggghhh!!!!!!!!
The area is ok'ish now, but if you are thinking of living in the area, try find a house off the main road thoroughfare (due to cars / buses) and try to pick one with nicer houses around you - the scummier houses do have some lunitics near by.
Great for
- Shopping centre
- Schools
