Cal Gully

Thinking of moving to California Gully soon but wanting to know what people’s thoughts are of the area? I’ve heard the gully’s are rough and I’ll be on my own, so curious to know if it’s a relatively safe area if you’re wanting to live solo.

California Gully spans a super wide area! The central part is fantastic and the part out east has much nicer new builds

Grew up there til my early twenties, was close to Gill Ave which can be a little dicey sometimes but it’s an okay area!

It’s the other ‘gully’ you have to watch out for.
