ali Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I work for Armadale health service and have since I arrived - live in Leeming which is a very easy 25 min drive - if you don't drive then it's a difficult place to get to. The shopping is great and the shire are always putting things on. The train line is one of the worst for crime though. Living there - Armadale is a mixed bag to be honest (i'm a community nurse), you have some less desirable parts, yet some of the surrounding areas are beautiful and quite affluent. New Suburbs like Harrisdale for example - come under the city of Armadale but are about 10 mins outside the centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docboat Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 Indeed - we live in Harrisdale, and a better suburb would be hard to find, with excellent schools, great access and close to amenities, parks and recreational facilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 People in Perth seem to have long memories and suburbs reputations last much longer than warranted, we lived in Hamilton Hill and the same applied there. So yes Armadale has a bad reputation....known as Armafail to some, I have a good friend who grew up there and I think 20+ years ago it was bad. I'm not sure where I saw this but have just googled to give you a giggle http://www.smh.com.au/comment/im-an-armafail-girl--and-proud-20130213-2eckb.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flag of convenience Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 That's exactly what my mate in Roleystone said. He's from Birmingham and thought Armadale was a holiday camp by comparison! You can't really compare. Appearances can be deceptive.There isn't the street life found in Birmingham. Try walking around late at night, getting the train etc. Different yes holiday camp only for those not in the know. I do agree some parts are nice though.
