I moved into Maylands about 6 months ago and I'm blown away by all the suburb has to offer. I honestly wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I could go on and on. I'm so happy to live here. If you like lifestyle And convenience then I can't recommend Maylands enough. We've been here for one year and love it. Great parks and walking tracks along the Swan.
People are friendly and have joined a great mothers group since we had our baby. Easy access to the city and airport. Great library. Food festival every Saturday night at the Rise. Not sure about this 'mozi problem' I think I've seen two in a year. Good prices for this close to the city and river. New cafes, resturants and a micro bar.
The place is on the up. I can ride my bicycle to work along the river in under 20 minutes and never have to deal with a busy road. The new Rise gym is open and a private gym is on the Penisula. Every train heading out of Perth stops at Maylands, if you move closer in you might have to miss a train because it is express past your stop.
All in all a place that is close to the city allowing you to link easily onto the Kwinana Freeway and the Mitchell Freeway via the Graham Farmer tunnel. If you live in North Perth area Mt Lawley it's a bit of an act to get onto the freeway so Maylands is very well positioned. The Maylands Yacht club has one of the best views in Perth.
Seriously under rated by people who have lived in Perth all their lives there is new money coming in. Perfect for FiFo workers as it is out of the flight path and only 15 minutes to the airport. A great place to live. I've been here for 8 years now and it's so accessible to everything. It has a wonderful main street on 8th ave which is constantly evolving with new quality businesses, restaurants bars and apartments.
The area has transformed significantly and continues to do so. Love watching it change and improve. There is a great selection of cafes and boutiques.
The people are generally pretty friendly and helpful. It is a lovely area to live. An ideal place for everyone especially young professionals who want to avoid the congestions in inner CBD living and enjoy quiet and safe inner suburb life. I live by the river Absolutely fall in love with its location and the friendly neighborhood. The area is culturally diverse and I think soon it'll become one of the most sought after area for buyers. With the future development by the water front and it's close proximity to Buswood entertainment precinct I think the most appropriate description to this beautiful suburb is a realestate oasis.
We have lived in Maylands for thirteen years, It's s great place to live, just a short walk to the river and the park down the road. Easy and central to go in all directions. We live in a nice quiet street and would recommend it to young couples with kids and professionals. Close to airport, good for fly in fly out workers.
My husband and I have been here for 2 years and we love it. Unfortunately there are some unpleasant areas in the suburb but we have been lucky to have brought our house in a lovely little pocket of maylands. Being so close to the city, river, lakes, golf course and mount lawley we honestly cannot understand why this area is not more expensive. It seems safe, friendly, new and location is great. Just researching this and other suburbs and neighbourhoods and noticed you have made not one but three disparaging comments about the place, and rated it one star for everything.
Every single aspect gets one star? Sounds like you aren't actually interested in reviewing the area but have a bone to pick and seem to want to make the place seem awful. It's not helpful, and the forum isn't really a place for you to vent your own frustrations. Thanks for the feed back as we no longer live the area and have moved to an area which is must nicer, and we just tell it as it is, thats why its a place to allow anybody to say what they wish, we lived in Maylands for many yeras and in a very expensive home which we now rent out.
And we found the area was just getting worse, not matter how hard they try. Come home to a house and find it broken into both cars with paint all over them, then you might get a feeling of lets give a nother chance, but no it happened again this time they where stopped. So time to move on so we have moved in to another home well away from Maylands. Have a great day.
Wow thats a suprise but I think it depends on what area of maylands you live in. I lived in Maylands and loved it. Cheap rent, close to the city, close to mount lawley and great restaurants.
Close to the freeway and tonkin hwy. I dont think you can ask for much more I do know some parys of Maylands are a bit dodge so I would reccomend anyone to ensure they move to the nice part of maylands. Hello, Sylviedoo. Could you tell me which parts of Maylands are nice and which parts are worse?
You want to stay away from Sherwood Street and Kathleen Ave - and anything that abuts those. Any other areas to avoid in Maylands I am looking at a house near mayland peninsula primary and coles The mozzies are indeed on steroids, I love living in Maylands and its amazing if you have a dog! You have already posted a 1-star rating below - why do you need to post this one too? I've lived here long enough to see a bit of a change around here.
To those saying it hasn't changed I think they're being very cynical, if you open your eyes it's gotten so much better with the influx of young people and better nightlife in neighbouring Mt Lawley. I read the other negative comments I think I'm basically trying to sell Maylands on the fact that it's close to Mt Lawley and the City and that's quite true : However it's also close to the major arteries such as the Freeway, Graham Farmer, Gt Eastern Hwy and so on.
If you need to get somewhere in Perth it makes it easy. I'm buying here after renting here a long time. As a young person without a family it's got everything I need. I've never felt unsafe here and the residents are no different to anywhere else as long as you're willing to venture out of your own shell. Night life, city access, shopping, eating and vibrancy are all close at hand without having to pay a high price Wel good luck with buying, the house next to me just got robbed the other day and its over a million dollar home so the area has not changed just more people with nothing to do but live off welfare, and who really cares about the nigt life there is more to living here than the night life but if thats all you have in your life enjoy.
The residents vary to very high income to the low income, Maylands is a very old area and some of the young peole as you put it need to know that, its not party central, once again cant wait to move to a better area and just rent this place out it will never change you can dress it up but its still Maylands.
I think comparing it to Claremont, Floreat and City Beach it's likely always going to come up short. Those areas are between x the price of your median price in Maylands. You're comparing apples to oranges. Maylands isn't party central, but as I pointed out it's close to the arteries and a lot of people really dig what's going on in Mt Lawley these days.
There are homes here as nearly as expensive to the good areas in Perth but you never get rid of the huge amount of low income people here who have no respect act like fools, ask for money in the streets I am so glad I have moved back to where I lived for years went to school etc I thought I would give Maylands a chance I purchase an expensive home in Maylands, but it makes no difference it will always be Maylands with its horrible flats, and word dig what is that are will still living in the 70 s and alot of people who have lived here for along time dont like the chnage the burn outs in the street the high amount of homes suject to damage due to break ins, enjoy living here sounds like you will fit right in and really DIG it, but some of us dont have to put up with it and can afford to live in another suburb a much better one and I dont think they use the word dig.
Just a suggestion : if you are going to try and denigrate people people based on class and turn of phrase, you may want to get your grammar and spelling in order. As for pricing; I was talking about median pricing not maximal pricing.
If an area's median price is 3x that of another it suggests the general affluence of the people there to obviously be higher. The fact that you can buy an expensive home in Maylands is just another sad indictment of the lack of merit based pay in society and specifically WA. Maybe you came into the money through family though which would probably make your bigotry understandable. The rest of your response doesn't really warrant reply.
Yes we are,we both come from money and dont give a stuff what people like you think who sound like they come from the working class background, god knows why we built a home on the river, with the land costing just under a million dollars and then the home on top of that. But now we live in an area where its safe and the people in the area actually work.
And frankly we dont care what the lower end of the scale think, we dont have too and never will, nor will our children. But enjoy Maylands sounds like you will fit in very well.
IITTALA - you honestly are making me second guess my move to Perth at all; you are not the kind of person that people new to an area want to meet. From the look of your last comment, you're quite aware that you're an arrogant snob, so why bother leaving a comment for the common person to read in the first place? Surely we are all well below you. I hope to be able to get an objective opinion of the place as it is now.
Not based on the extreme experience of anyone. Can anyone help? Maylands sounds really close to the city and with some promise of an interesting suburbia. Is it really true? Or is it not? I'd appreciate some good input and help. I'm new. ITS A DUMP cant wait to move might be close to it all but there are much better suburs to live in should not of wasted my money buying here as for 8 th Avenue its horrible dirty and not safe even to park your car, this is a suburb with no class and will never change, just drive around and see the side show and lock the doors on the car.
I love how you put Con: No Pubs and another Con was that a new pub is opening soon? Haha mate are you a bit special? Just minutes from the city Maylands is an absolute buyer's delight! It's a suburb on the move with plenty of access to transport and the new development of the 8th avenue cafes makes it a funky place to live for young couples or young families.
Maylands is only 5KM to CBD which makes it the first choice to move in for many new migrants, but that lies the problem since those people come from different background and do not treat this area as their own home.
Crowed and dirty, noisy and unsafe. I do not like living here. We rent our apartment in central Maylands, and most of our neighours rent theirs as well. There are groups of apartments or units in Maylands which makes this suburb crowded and dirty. Tenanta move in while some move out, too many new faces to regonize and it is tricky to form a good community spirit.
I do not think it a good suburb to purchase your houses here, and if you like ,just rent and move in. When you are tired of the atmosphere here, you can terminate you lease and simply move out. While it is a suitable place for people who want to work in the CBD coz public transportation is handy here, but it is not good to raise a family here.
I agree with so much they come her to live and just do what they want drive like they own the roads and think its funny, I have lived here for along time and over the years its just getting worse I will be renting my place out and moving back to more suitable area, and to raise a family well I would take my children down 8 th Avenue to see fights drug users and drunks, I have had my car broken into twice, so as I said it just gets worse they build big expensive homes here but its just window dressing, you can buy in much better places and feel safe, why would I spend over a million to live here when I can go back to where I went school etc in Floreat, City Beach.
We love living in Maylands! There are great walking and cycling tracks. As a 24 year old I'm glad I have bought in maylands as I think capital growth is going to be good and it is nice living so close to everything and there are still some affordable gems out there. Good park access, very close drive to the city or airport. Public transport is limited if you live away from the train station. The main problem I had in Maylands was the mozi's. They must be some superbreed that can bypass all the traps or anti-mozi stuff I put out.
And they left me with the biggest bite marks I have ever seen : That being said I was living right next to the river, they may not be so bad further back.
My adsl connectionwas good in Maylands around 10MB out of a possible 22MB - but this will depend on you distance to the exchange. Also as a warning to anyone that is looking to buy in the area, avoid the bayswater side of maylands, this is still a very low socio-economic region.
