"Moved away . . . never coming back!"
Having lived in Albert Park for 5 years (Little Page St), my partner and I made the decision to finally move away due to the high crime rate. Our home and or back yard were broken into 7+ times in 5 years and had our car (parked on street in front of our house) broken into 5 times! I don't know if the crime is coming from within or from those wondering in from neighbouring suburbs, but we are certainly glad we left.
Not great for
- Very high crime rate
- High number or break ins (home and car)
- Very expensive to buy real estate
"Perfect place to bring up a family"
Some of Melbourne's best schools are located within Aberfeldie, and therefore a very tightly held suburb. Beautiful historic homes and tree lined streets make this a hidden gem within only 7km to Melbourne's CBD. Being walking distance to the very popular Maribyrnong River also makes this a very desirable suburb.
Great for
- Beautiful parks
- High quality schools
- Stunning architecture
Not great for
- Very pricey

"Never leaving!"
Having only lived in Essendon for less than a year, my partner and I have already made the decision that we’ll never leave this incredible area. Not only does it offer some of Melbourne’s leading schools (private and public) but Essendon also provides a high level of quality and diverse restaurant/cafe options on Buckley St, Mt Alexander Rd and Keilor Rd . . . spoilt for choice!
We spend most evenings exploring the local area, whether that’s checking out the local pubs or just admiring the exquisite architecture of the Edwardian and Victorian homes on an evening stroll through the very safe and inviting streets.
Great for
- Quality schooling options
- Beautiful parks
- Proximity to city
- Close to Public Transport
- Great food
- Holds it's value
Not great for
- Dont want to leave
- Expensive to buy in
