parkdale Suburb Profile & Review

Parkdale is a lovely residential suburb on Port Phillip Bay, between Mentone and Mordialloc. While Parkdale Beach is a popular destination during the summer months, locals enjoy views of its glistening waves all year round from Parkdale Beach cafe. The Parkdale Yacht Club is a great family-friendly club that conducts races and training for boats utilising the suburb's waterside location.

There are three primary schools to choose from, while Parkdale Secondary College is across Warren Road in Mordialloc. St Bede's College is a highly reputable private Christian school just beyond the eastern border of the suburb.

There are a number of buses servicing the area; however, the train from Parkdale Station is generally considered the best route into the city, because the journey takes only forty minutes. Those who prefer to drive will find Parkdale is just thirty-five minutes from the CBD on the Nepean Highway. On Como Parade West, just next to the train station, there is an IGA supermarket, restaurants and cafes. The Parkdale Library is on the other side of the train tracks on Parkers Road. The Como Private Hospital, an accredited medical, surgical and rehabilitation facility, is further down Como Parade West.

parkdale Income & Mortgage Stats

To calculate the percentage of income paid towards a mortgage for the suburb of Melbourne, multiply the mortgage payment (e.g. $2450) by 12 then divide this figure by the weekly income (e.g. $1200) multiplied by 52 (weeks) to look like this ($2450 x12/$1200 x 52) x 100 = 47%

Any figure above 30% usually indicates that the suburb you intend to buy in may have property owners with a high incidence of mortgage stress. In terms of maintaining or growing property values in the future and trying to secure a strong property price when selling, this could have an impact, especially in an economic or local industry downturn.
