Where to buy next?

DD must include crime and perceptions of crime. It must also go further than this to understand trends including areas that may be tending towards slumming down vs those areas that are gentrifying.

Grand tour of White Rock

It is best to keep an open mind.For eg this house listed 7 days already under offer. 2000sqm land beautiful renovated Queenslander, in a small remnant rural area with horses and also way too many kangaroos. Wish I had seen it !

Where I was staying,would love to live here as it is resort living close to the city. I have animals though so no can do.

Now we looks at Older parts, run down or basic

So really cannot generalise, I think when you first drive in not the best part so first impression is perhaps clouded by that. I would prefer some parts of White Rock, like the resort I had stayed in, than to some parts of suburbs that are overall nicer but further out etc
