"Tarneit has NO redeeming features"
Moved back to Australia and thought I would build a house in Tarneit. Before doing so decided to rent and see what the suburb was all about. Great big new house....but no back yard to speak of. Lego Land...packed in tight where you can hear your neighbours all of the time. First week in - walk out the front door with my three year old to be confronted with several police cars. Stabbing across the street. Domestic Violence was the norm with our Neighbours to the back - makes for great entertainment christmas day with children and guests....NOT! House near "recreation centre" growing drugs! Which brings me to the recreation centre if you could call it that! People that own in the area did not seem to benefit as those who rented invited their friends in en masse. Horrified by behaviour of locals....racially motivated. Shocking place.
Not great for
- Lack of infrastructure
- Very bad traffic and ease of access to city
- Hoons
- House and land size
- Crime rate
- Neighbours
@ lucky 3 do you need to comment and try and defend tarneit with every bad review that is on here. Not all of tarneit is like where you live maybe you should experience the real world and realise all different parts of ONE suburb can be different !!!!!
Having a bad neighbour isn't a reflection on the whole suburb....
Land sizes are small in every new estate that is coming up. If you want bigger land, pay the extra money to get it.
Same here. Moved back to Australia and found my old suburb of Yarraville quite pricey already. Rented a 2 year old house in Tarneit facing a farm that offered me beautiful sunsets. Lovely neighbour too who mowed my lawn for me. BUT no good restaurants nearby. House got broken into within weeks. And the traffic into the city was horrific! Packed up and left the day the lease expired. I hope never to go back!
In 2006, the total population of Tarneit was estimated at 7,613 people. It is expected to experience an increase of over 36,100 people to 43,803 by 2021! The area is growing rapidly and of course just like any other area in melbourne or anywhere in the world, there will be domestic violence and drugs. It is definitely not the NORM and we hardly hear of stabbings or drugs!!! As described by most residents it is quiet and peaceful and family orientated, maybe not as peaceful as a country village in the UK................
