I loved living here. I lived on smith street. The only thing was the noise and the tourists...which are to be expected (and accepted!) living in such an inner city locale. Was nice to be in the thick of it all.

I love living here so much. My wife and I can walk around accepted (until we go to Clifton hill) and we love living here. It has the gardens for the dogs/kids, awesome schools, amazing proximity to cbd/smith and Brunswick st, yet you’re not right in the thick
Of it.

People whinge it’s expensive, but you get what you pay for. I feel so safe here, in so many ways. The streets are gorgeous and there is an awesome mix of people who live here.

St. George’s rd is great, loads of public transport, I really can’t fault it. I don’t ever want to leave, it’s the best.

There is a feeling of unease here. We came to have our first twin babies. On paper it’s perfect. Larger homes. Parks. Transport. But it’s an awful place. I never felt welcomed by the aging population, who constantly try to cease improvement of the ever failing Queens Parade. Watched over by the creepy old shot tower.

The place had really weird vibes. I didn’t like it at all, apart from its proximity to the 86...outta there.

I actually thought I was going mad, but my view is shared by many. Problem is, everyone is so proud they can’t accept it’s not for everybody.

It’s certainly not for me, no thanks. Living in Fitzroy north and much better vibes. 1 year olds are happier too. They cry when we cross Queens Parade...be it in the car or stroller, day or night. Go figure.
