Sunbury

"Country living but yet close to everything"

I love Sunbury I have lived here almost my whole life(expt 6 months when I was 7) I have lived in 3 different areas and I love it still. I recently got married and my husband is from Flemington/North Melb we both love Sunbury and cant think of a better place to raise our family.
Some people complain about the trains but I prefer the vline trains sure they aren't as often as the normal ones but they are clean fast and have bathrooms! it only takes about 30 -45 mins on the train to get to the city and we are in the centre to get to anywhere on one side we have Melbourne the other Geelong and then Bendigo and Ballarat!
Its a great quite place with everything you need to raise a family!

Who lives here?

  • Professionals
  • Families with kids
  • Retirees

Hi all:

Currently I am living in eastern part of Melbourne in Croydon and have been living for last 3 years. I loved every bit of it as shops, transport etc are all close by. Recently my wife got a job in Bendigo and to travel everyday to Bendigo, it's a big commute( 3 hrs one way ). I am seriously considering to move to some suburbs in west and obviously bit established ones. I picked up Sunbury in terms of transport, shops etc. There is Vline that goes from Sunbury to Bendigo and also to city. Wondering whether it's possible to get some feedback about Sunbury in terms of living with a family. I read somewhere the other name of Sunbury is Scumbury . Well we have got some bad element in every suburb. So hows it living in Sunbury? How about the shops, transport, parkland and access to basic amenities?Also which part of Sunbury is a good part?I was told to avoid certain parts of Sunbury.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated as I am seriously considering.

Regards,

ASC

I can only speak from my own experience and I love living here.
we are looking at selling up and moving but this is purely because we want a cheaper house so that both my husband and I dont need to work and it is honestly a very hard decision. if i can find something in my price range i will be staying but in saying that there are some very nice houses cheap i'm just looking at VERY cheap.
Where we are is a very quiet area apart from the occassional idiot tearing around one of the corners near by but its not very often so not a big deal at all.
It does get very busy in the town as everything is there but it seems to be more during peak times and on a saturday (but i usually do my shopping on a sunday).
I've seen very few 'scum' in my time!! Definitely is a lot of families around.
Good Luck!

i'm in Vineyard rise estate which is a smaller estate and probably not as well heard of as the others.
from what i've heard Goonawarra estate is one to avoid but i cant really say for sure as i dont go there very often.

Goonawarra isn't too bad, its just that there are some housing commission houses inter-spread amongst the homes, and they can cause some issues, but overall, no worse than most suburbs
