Bondi has a low violent crime rate and a low property crime rate for Sydney.
While Bondi shares the same postal code as Bondi Beach, they are considered distinct suburbs. This is the mellower, more residential sister to the bustling beach zone. Bondi Road, the main thoroughfare down to the beach, splits this neighborhood in two. To the north of Bondi Road apartment blocks provide most of the housing. South of Bondi Road you'll mostly find modest (though not necessarily affordable) single-family homes.
There are some shops and terrific restaurants along Bondi Road, but for groceries and other staples you'll need to head to the adjacent shopping hub of Bondi Junction.
Bondi is bordered on the north by Bellevue Hill, on the east by Bondi Beach, on the south by Tamarama and Bronte, and on the west by Bondi Junction.
