Because you're new I'll point out the seach facility. It's located on the top right of every page. If you put "applecross" or "perth suburbs" in you'll come up with dozens of threads on Perth and it's surrounds. If you're looking for even more fun, try typing in "Perth schools". That's where the real entertainment lies. |

It's one of the areas I would live in if I had a couple of mill to spend on housing and I wouldn't even consider the Northern Suburbs if I had that kind of spending power. Can't help with schools, although my guess is the local primary schools would be great due to the affluent area and most high school age kids in the area would go to the top notch private. Renting does indeed look a bargain compared to buying in Applecross. |
Re: applecross, good?
Ah ha a SOR thread! This is my area we hear so seldon about on here. Its my favorite part of Perth, not just Applecross which is a top 5 suburb in Perth but also those around there - Mt Pleasant, Ardross and further west Bicton, Attadale.
Applecross SHS has a very good rep, and pretty high standards. Another nearby which is excellent in Rossmoyne SHS (Google the burb). Housing in that area is pricey but there are properties sub million but not your 4x2 detached with pool so many Brits seek. Some duplexes etc at under $1M. Also recently reported was the collapse of rents. Applecross topped Australia in rent values falling 30%. With rents typically cheaper than buying you could snaffle yourself a bargain in a fantastic suburb and have change to enjoy all it has to offer. Another reason I like the area is its close to everything, city, Freo, beaches, freeway, Garden City. I have not come across many expats in this area though if thats important to you. |

Re: applecross, good?
does anybody with children lives in / near Applecross?
we are in the Applecross high school catchment area, I heard its not the worst school in town but how good is it really comparing to a private school in Perth that you dont have to be a catholic to get into? |
Re: applecross, good?
No, I'm sorry, no one in Apllecross has children, its one of the local bylaws.
