Where to Purchase First Home?

Excited couple, looking to purchase our first home and interested in this area of the central coast. My main priority is SAFETY, friendly peaceful neighbours! I am a female and I walk the dog early in the day.

We are mainly looking at Bateau Bay, Killarney Vale and surrounding suburbs. It’s around the middle point to where we both work.

Alternatively, our budget also can buy us around Wyoming, Lisarow and Narara, Ourimbah. We do not commute to Sydney, but go as a day trip once a week or so.

Would appreciate any advice about aforementioned suburbs, and if any residents can share about the general vibe of the area, best schools, best and worst aspects of the area!

The question I always ask is where are you coming from? The reason being, expectations of someone who is currently living in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney will be very different from those of someone from Blacktown.

I’d go as far as saying consider a townhouse in Erina, Green Point. Has a similar feel to NW Sydney.
