"Multi-Cultural Melting Pot"
Weston is filled with the sights and sounds of many different cultures and religions. It has a major shopping centre close by with all of the basic amenities covered. It is also within easy access to a range of different schools. It is a family friendly area with plenty of parks and gardens.
