yeh...what's wrong with kambah!!!!!
it rocks!! (i live there, i have to say that heh)
nah i think kambah is a lot better than it used to be when it got a reputation...i've lived here a while and never had a problem - a lot of the dodgy gov housing has been sold off and done up by the new owners.
Stephen, Chifley is fine...anywhere around there is good - Woden's a nice area and close to everything. Curtin would be my pick of the suburbs there (only cos i grew up there ). It's an older area and you'll find most houses have huge blocks, but on the downside some places might need a little TLC. Woden Plaza is right at your door, as well as movies/restaurants, and literally over the road is Phillip which has car dealerships, tyre places, hardwear shops etc..
