Armadale, Perth
 

Just wondering if anyone on the boards lives or knows much about Armadale. Thinking about this area if we finally manage to move over in September.

Thank you.

there are better area's than Armadale to put it mildly, a bit hard to find any worst

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

oooh right! Thank you. Will stop looking there then!

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

Its down to personal choice..............but I wouldnt live there!

Absolute shitehole.

Well, you guys are honest I'll give you that! Thanks though. Will be studying in Cannington so trying to look online at what's available. Needs to be a family home for 3 of us. Looking at around $400 per week. Needs to have a good family vibe.

Loved the look of Secret Harbour but may be too far out? I will be buying either a motorbike or a scooter when I arrive so a bit quicker than being in car.

Give Willetton a try. Nice suburb and good schools. Closeish (is that a word?) to Cannington.

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

Off to have a look Dorothy. Thank you. We're out on holiday next month so want to narrow down a few good areas rather than wasting time in crap ones!

Have you ever thought of coming down to Bunbury? Its 2 hours south of Perth, Im also on a student visa and I study here in Bunbury! :) Its regional too so you get extra points!!

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

We'd love to come further South but the course is in Cannington and it is the only place that does it. We'd be further South in a shot.

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

Oh well never mind! What course is it you are doing? Im doing horticulture and enjoying it!

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

Wall and Floor tiling in Cannington (hopefully). Still to apply for visas but we don't envisage any problems with getting them.

Glad you are enjoying it though. When does your course finish?

Re: Armadale, Perth
 

will finish december 09! half way there already, its gone so quick! :)

It has its fair share of trouble but is starting to improve with new development. Older parts have some nice properties on large blocks in quite rural settings. But as I say, it has a fair amount of trouble from what i can tell. There is potential to see some good capital growth though if you can get through for a few years.
