Newtown.
Its absolutely awful.
Are you a Boomer?

Can you tell me why you think it's awful? Is it a general feeling or something specific?

That may well be so, but do communists, degenerates, hippies and drummers keep Boomers out of an area?

That's the pertinent question. They may well like smelly commie degenerate hippy drummers, in which case it doesn't help me. But if Boomers in general hate smelly commie degenerate hippy drummers, then I think I can tolerate that in return for some political representation.

Sydney Inner West definately has a low concentration of boomers.

Mostly generation x owners and y renters - of course, this is a massive generalisation but close.
Nah, they are there too. They hide away from the main streets, so they're harder to spot.

They also own all those rental properties.

There's that element but it's been "gentrified" lately. A lot of "professionals" live in the Inner West because it's close to work in the city.

Well, I'm resigned to putting up with them, I'd just prefer not to live in the same suburb, preferably the same electorate. That way I can vote for someone that actually represents me. Taxation without representation is a real downer.
Well a lot of them vote Green or Labor, I think they have a Labor member.

Seems as though Greens just want to tax the shit out of all those "rich" people on $120k and do nothing about house prices and make more public housing for lazy and dumb people and import immigrants like a motherfucker. Not really what I'd call a fair solution to housing affordability.

I think you'll have to live with having no representation too.

Steer clear of Pymble/North Shore . We went to a sunday market there last year and the first thing I noticed was no kids toys ,books etc.

Soon one of my kids started crying because we wouldn't let her buy something . We ignored her heading for the exit , then a seventy something grey moptop threatened to call child protection on us .

She couldn't stand a kid crying . Weird place .

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.

Forum Rules: The main forum may be used to discuss property, politics, economics and finance, precious metals, crypto currency, debt management, generational divides, climate change, sustainability, alternative energy, environmental topics, human rights or social justice issues, and other topics on a case by case basis. Topics unsuitable for the main forum may be discussed in the lounge. You agree you won't use this forum to post material that is illegal, private, defamatory, pornographic, excessively abusive or profane, threatening, or invasive of another forum member's privacy. Don't post NSFW content. Racist or ethnic slurs and homophobic comments aren't tolerated. Accusing forum members of serious crimes is not permitted. Accusations, attacks, abuse or threats, litigious or otherwise, directed against the forum or forum administrators aren't tolerated and will result in immediate suspension of your account for a number of days depending on the severity of the attack. No spamming or advertising in the main forum. Spamming includes repeating the same message over and over again within a short period of time. Don't post ALL CAPS thread titles. The Advertising and Promotion Subforum may be used to promote your Australian property related business or service. Active members of the forum who contribute regularly to main forum discussions may also include a link to their product or service in their signature block. Members are limited to one actively posting account each. A secondary account may be used solely for the purpose of maintaining a blog as long as that account no longer posts in threads.
