Staffordgirl

I've lived in the area since 2001. I have lived here single with cheap cab rides home from the city and nights out, and now am raising my family here. The local state schools are great and we are very happy with the teachers and small schools. I have never had a bad experience here. No break ins, no muggings, my car has never been stolen. It's got a great community spirit with school fetes and great neighbours. The Stafford. City shopping centre has movies, woolworths and yesterday aldi opened its doors. Great medical facilities with GPs at Stafford. City and the RBH and Prince Charles hospitals nearby. Everton park has a great maternity hospital (Northwest hospital) too. Yes there are public housing pockets but there are also homes over 800,000. It's quite a large suburb and has a bit of everything. Many reno's are happening along with knock downs for rebuilding. There are some gfeat cafes if you know where to look (try bite my biscuit or urbano). restaurants we are lacking but chermside and wilston are close by.
