Alexandria

"A true gem a stone's throw from the city!"

We bought our little one bedroom apartment 8 years ago and wished we had invested in something bigger because Alexandria has only gone from strength to strength. It is a true gem and so close to everything. It is a perfect place to live because cafe's, shopping, markets and transport are all walking distance and ever improving. I can't really comment on schooling because we are professionals so I wont even attempt to. There are lovely parks and it is surprisingly green considering the proximity to the city. It also is very affordable considering how close it is to everything and you dont get the constant airplane noise like some of the neighbourhood suburbs.

Great for

  • Peaceful and private considering the proximity.
  • Affordability
  • Proximity to everything

"Fantastic Family Suburb"

We have lived here for 6 years and have noticed year on year growth. The suburb is really developing and its easy to understand why with the ease of transport, access to good schools, parks, shopping and cafes. It is really family friendly and the neighbours are lovely. We love going to the Farmer's markets and evening Mitchie Makers markets. There is a fantastic local park run and acess to sporting grounds and pools are excellent. There are shopping precints in three directions and Brookside Shopping Centre, which is being modified and renovated is easy to access. The local primary school is good and improving every year. The secondary school needs improvement (in my view) but there is good access to private schooling. We haven't experienced any crime.

Great for

  • Growing suburb. Good capital growth
  • Access to transport is easy.

Not great for

  • Not much night life
  • There isnt a huge Westfield. This might be a pro or a con depending on the person.
