Ravenswood has great views. It is only 5 mins drive to the Launceston CBD. A cheap buy in area and has good rental yields for investors, as has an area of housing commission owned homes, so some stigma attached. Never had a problem with tenants. It has some new developments being built. A long - term investment.

I live here with my young family. There are lots of big houses on big blocks. Lots of sporting clubs, parks and the beach 15 mins away. There is Parkmore, DFO Moorabbin, Southland and Chadstone within 5-20 mins away. A real friendly community feeling, there is a local "dingley dossier" produced every month. Be careful where you buy/rent as some areas are near the nursery landfills (smell) and light aircraft fly over some areas (noise). No high schools but plenty in surrounding suburbs. No nightlife at all. The shopping area is under plans and permits to rebuild.
