"Lived in sydney for 10 years, Newtown 5"
And I can honestly say, I'm sick of this hell hole.
Sure it used to be nice, but now it just seems to be the place annoying yuppies go to act alternative. I can't believe the amount I'm paying to live in this hell, and the real estate are raising it another $30 in 3 months. Luckily that's when my lease runs out - I'm escaping to Melbourne.
Also, living on south king street - there are no good restaurants apart from the pastizzi cafe! (Which I can't afford often after paying $300 a week, sharing)
I've been robbed countless times & it's just not worth it to watch each new generation of Newtown Performing Arts students litter the streets and scream at each other through their polymorph pierced lips.

You are a fool!
matt I totally agree with you! I lived in SF too, and you are spot on. Though, I have to say Sydney has some nice hidden gems that are under rated.
So true, it has been going downhill for many decades. Sydney has become sad, too many tourists/foreigners and finance people, the same thing happened to San Francisco in the 80s. Unfortunately my work only really exists in Sydney so I need to stay here. I will throw a massive party the day before I leave.
