Neighbourhood Tips for Melbourne

  • Melbourne has 30 tram stops – one of the densest tram networks in Melbourne for a inner-ring suburb. Check the PTV app for live route numbers and departure times from your nearest stop.
  • Decision Point 12 is the closest train station to central Melbourne, with 47 station stops within the suburb boundary. From here it is a direct run into the city loop, 0km from the CBD.
  • Street parking in Melbourne is metered on main roads and time-restricted on side streets during business hours. With 30 tram stops in the suburb, leaving the car at home is the smarter move for anything along the commercial strips.
  • With 86 public transport stops, Melbourne gets congested during the 4pm to 6pm weekday peak. If you are driving through, avoid the main arterials between those hours and use the residential back streets instead.
  • Rent data for Melbourne is pending from RTBA, but as an inner-ring suburb 0km from the CBD, expect prices in line with surrounding inner suburbs. Check Domain or realestate.com.au for current 2BR listings.
  • VicPol crime data for Melbourne is at the LGA level – suburb-specific rates are pending. Standard inner-city precautions: lock bikes, do not leave valuables visible in parked cars, and be aware of your surroundings after dark.
