Monty is a relatively small suburb, and the main shopping street (Were St) is tucked away from general traffic. It's hilly, green, and generally has mainly a post-WW2 to 80's housing stock. There is a substantial amount of development going on, but most is relatively sympathetic to the surrounds. The primary schools and preschools are good. It takes about 45 min to get to the city on the train. There seem to be lots of new families moving into the area - as older families downsize.
