I agree with ScottK1 about what a really nice place we have here the stupidity of the reputation that East Devonport has been labelled with by people who do not live here. As far as I can find out it got branded back in the 1980s and 1990s . It was said to be crime ridden. I think it just was given a bad name as so many of the houses were public housing residences and for no other reason than that. The dirt just stuck and ignorant people just keep feeding the myth even though so much of the public housing was sold off nearly 20 years ago and we have some of the oldest and finest homes in Devonport here. Our crime rate here is lower than Launceston, Hobart and any city on the mainland, the weather is the best in Australia and the people pretty friendly. What more could you ask for?
