Is this suburb getting safer?

We bought and fully renovated our first home in The bad wrap suburb Zillmere...but I tell you in the 7 years we lived there not one issue and we were surrounded by lots of real people who cared. I was sad to move actually but we had no choice. I think as the community pulls together even more and listens to those in need it will only get better! :)
Hi there, there is no magic street without trouble in Zillmere. It has a huge proportion of public housing, check out Ripehouse (www.ripehouse.com) and if you join up with them you can then search suburbs for public housing. Every street in Zillmere has some. Sorry to read about your troubles. I've had my letterbox broken into and items stolen repeatedly at the start of the year. There are weirdos and dodgy characters galore in Zillmere. Shame. Could be a great suburb. My advice is don't buy there unless you want to wait 10 years for it to become decent.
Zillmere, is undergoing a revival, good prices if you want to renovate. I have lived over near beams road since 1982 . This end is okay. No one in our street in 40 years has been broken into. No drunks or hoons. Over near the Zillmere Train Station , I have never felt safe, But alot of stations are like that.
Hello

wow really? I have lived in Zillmere for 2 years and always coming into trouble with hoons, housing commission people acting crazy (domestics, drunken behaviour, littering), thefts and the mentally ill roaming near the station and shops. This post is for September 2018... I can't see the date you have posted :) Glad you have had a better time than I have. This morning I was woken up yet again at 5am by someone deliberately blasting hiphop repeatedly and hooning, more hooning and the police sirens.
