Thank you.
Despite the acrimonious nature of some posters on this thread, the City of Armadale covers a huge area, and not all of the region is dire straits.

I'd bet (my house perhaps) that the majority (of posters) have based their opinion on hearsay, or even perhaps a drive by via the Albany Highway. Some might say this would be the " up their own arse's Northern Suburbs mentality".

Sure there are some shite areas, some fantastic. It depends where you decide to settle. Suggest you do some homework on the ground, but as a general guide, most suburbs west of the railway are "shitehole", and those east are the dogs bollocks. The Kinross's and Iluka's of the North are
not a patch on suburbs like Mt Richon, Mt Nasura, Roleystone with big blocks etc. Fot costs, rent rates are favourable too from $300- 600 per week getting you at least a 3 bed house on a 1500sqm block

Cant be hacked with sterile big brother suburbs, where snobby people can hear their neighbours doing a dump.

Can't argue with that, some parts of Roleystone are very nice, others are hillbilly central, don't forget to bring your banjo...

We are in Forrestfield, 15mins from Cannington, 3bed on large block with pool Lesmurdie falls National Park is behind us with the most beautiful waterfall. We avoided sterile overpriced new developments and to be honest we moved to Oz to meet ozzies not live with a load of poms!
I work in Willeton and agree its also a nice suburb so to is Roleystone
