If you think crime is a problem now you should have seen it 10-30yrs ago. It makes today look like paradise. I have lived in the inner city all my life and in the last few years I haven’t felt safer. The whole area was a massive slum, but a lot of the undesirables (I would say 80%) have been dispersed to the greater Sydney areas. There will always be crime in the city…..That is city life!

Will it become a majour slum again? At least its improved from what it was.

I have lived in Glebe, Balmain and Newtown all my life and love it. I am quite happy to raise my kids here as well. My point is that I have seen crime decrease so that does not concern me, show me stats that it has increased and I will laugh.

I don’t hold property in the city apart from my home. I do have property around the Sydney area (I don’t want to toot my boat). A majour opportunity will present itself in time similar to 93 and if you can get in at the right time you will not be sorry. I do think we need to go through some majour pain first for all our silliness and stupid property TV programs.

50c in the $1. We can only hope.

All the best
