just had to put my 2 penneth in
Clarkson has some nice sides to it, and the same with butler, I've got friend of a friend who lives there and they have no bother...
we live in currambine, and its nice, but it has its downsides as well - mainly the idiots driving up to the station , but you get that everywhere...
burns beach is lovely, its got lots of positives and plots are at a premium if you are beach side of marmion. iluka is fab and is hopefully where we will end up, its great for families, they have a residents association that everyone has to pay into so that the public areas and pathways etc are all kept neat and tidy - its all really lovely. it is expensive but it depends what you want and what you are happy with...
we liked jindalee but it just felt a little too out of the way.
my little boy goes to currambine catholic primary school - its great, he will hopefully go to either sacred heart or prendiville, but it is notoriously difficult to get them into sacred heart unless they are gifted/talented or sporting
taking everything into account, the so-called bad areas are no where near as bad as the ones in the UK - its completely different - IMHO
