Frankston still has a bad rep. I don't live too far from there & it's not a place I'd consider living with or without kids. Langwarrin which is only a stones throw away has a far better reputation & I've known a few people who've lived there very happily. Mornington is nice too, but it is getting a bad rep for violence at night around the nightclubs. Again I know several people who've loved living at Mornington.
Last I shopped in Frankston (over a year ago now I guess) you had to pay for parking at the big shopping centre which is a pain in the butt (and pretty much unheard of anywhere else out this way). It's a very busy car park & you can sometimes have to drive around a bit to even find a car park. That situation may have changed since I went there though.
