BRUNSWICK
If you like unpretentious, earthy cafes and living in a place where people of all descriptions are welcome, then Brunswick is your nirvana. More >>
CARLTONCarlton is Melbourne's Italian fix. It is vibrant, colourful and interesting. Some of its residents are the intellectual type, some are of the family variety, others are newly arrived migrants. And there's the occasional doof doof music fan. More >>
CLIFTON HILL Clifton Hill has been gentrified. It attracts professionals and creative types who have a social conscience and are aware of what's going on in the world. More>>
COBURGCoburg is one of the most multi-cultural suburbs of Melbourne. For decades it's had a strong Greek and Italian presence but in recent years, people from Arabic backgrounds have also settled here, as have younger professionals with or without kids. More >>>
COLLINGWOOD
Welcome to the living kaleidoscope. Collingwood is home to eco warriors, gays, young creatives, artists, grungey types, professionals, retro furniture fans, organic coffee gurus, and welfare recipients. More >>
ELTHAM
Eltham is one safe, green, hilly haven. This place probably has more architecturally designed mud brick homes per square km than any other part of Australia. More >>
FAIRFIELD Fairfield looks unassuming, but has an underlying charm that will clinch it for those who like a safe suburb with period architecture, a community feel, and a bit of spark but nothing too challenging. More >>
FITZROY
Fitzroy was your quintessential working class suburb with street after street of small brick, workers' cottages. Now, it's a temple to the arty, creative, boho, grungey, bookish, politically aware set. More >>
FITZROY NORTH
North Fitzroy is where the arty, creative types move to when they get older, start having families, earn more money or want a quieter neighbourhood to live in. More >>
IVANHOE
If you are a head banger into heavy metal music, don't move to Ivanhoe. Ivanhoe is pretty suburbia with plenty of greenery and a bit of olde worlde charm. More >>
NORTHCOTE You know a suburb has gone through gentrification when a whole stack of kids clothing shops open up. The thing about Northcote though, is you won't find any designer labels here. It's a hell of a lot more alternative and eclectic. More >>
PRESTON
Preston is a thriving, colourful suburb with large numbers of southern Europeans, students especially from southern Asia, alternative type professionals, and families unable to afford housing in nearby Thornbury and Northcote. More >>
