"A wonderful place by day... but lock your homes at night"
I've lived in the area all my life and what I enjoy most is how easy it is to get anywhere by walking or public transport. I love grocery shopping here, it is so ethnically diverse that you can buy almost anything; from biltong to baklava. The library is fantastic, and if you enjoy cheap (i.e. free) entertainment, Holroyd has many events through the year, like the fireworks on Australia Day.
What I don't like is how the vermin (i.e. the people variety) appears after dark, whether it be loitering around the train station and parks, or just revving their stupid cars and subjecting the rest of us to smell of burnt rubber. Don't even get me started on the drive-by shootings of late. I feel there is no nightlife in Merrylands, once its 5:30pm, you want to be safe at home.
