Moving to Melbourne with family to live permanently
East Melbourne, VIC 3002 is located within the Melbourne local government area, part of the Melbourne (Greater) Region in Victoria.
To anyone who can suggest/advise. I have been doing a bit of googling on Melbourne, did visit Mel in May and loved the place. Now we have decided to live in the East, renting at a rate of 340 to 380 per week. I know Zone 1 is out. However my eyes are on Eltham, Wattle Glen, Blackburn, North Ringwood, Watsonia, anywhere North East or South East, not too far out though. Would I be right in my choices of areas listed, would there be anymore that I could/should consider? I have kids, so main priority is a primary schooling, bus/train station. We do intend on getting a car when we do find a place. I have been told that I could go 25 to 30kms out from CBD to find afforadable housing as well. (which we are fine with, as I know Mel is a place of distances, with good public transport system) So over to anyone with information that would help. I will be moving around July next yr so thought I'd start the ground work right away. Thank you :)

If you want affordable, look at the Belgrave/Lilydale train lines, they are a bit far out, but great to raise kids in. I would not recommend Ringwood to raise children, honestly Ringwood has a habit of turning kids into druggies Heatherdale is basically Ringwood, but Nunwading and Mitcham are lovely and have great playgrounds, I don't know much about further in, but I do know that's where it starts to get expensive.
