"Great place if there wasn’t so much crime."
I’ve grown up in St. Albans my whole life and living here for the past 16 years plus , I have to say...it hasn’t been the best experience.
Just like any place there are some pros and cons, this place...is mostly cons..!
I’ve seen many crazy things and had many crazy things happen to me..it’s generally safe I guess but also dangerous at the same time.
This suburb has bad people so don’t hang out with the wrong crowd and end up doing stupid shit.
If you’re young 14- mid 20s and like to go out you are likely going to run into some thugs. (Black and islanders) mostly at the train station.
There are many wannabe gangs copying America because of social media and music.
They terrorise the youth and young adults.
They rob, bash, bully, everything you can think of...and the police and community isn’t doing much to help.
Some people are racist to dark skins , Asians and Indians.
There are also many junkies and homeless people shooting up and throwing needles everywhere including the park, alleyways, toilets, public grounds...it’s disgusting!
Many drug dealers are around and aren’t hard to find...just shows how much of a bad place this is!
The cons are close public transport access.
To elaborate, where ever you live in St. Albans you will always find a bus stop nearby that will take you to the train.
Also some restaurants are decent, I guess.
It’s pretty close to the cbd and many shops and public transport makes it easy to access if you don’t have a car.
There is watergardens Shopping Centre which is approx 5 min by train, highpoint shopping centre, Keilor downs, brimbank ect
There are gyms nearby aswell if you’re into fitness there’s sunshine gym on Wright street, anytime fitness which is pricey, derrimut gym ect ect
Overall, St. Albans is still a developing place and if you’re planning to live here, make sure you are aware of the crime and be safe..don’t go out too late and go out with a group of friends. If you’re a girl be extra safe as there are many sexual assaults and harassment that goes around here.
Hope this helps who ever reads this.
You must be living in St.Albans on another planet. I've been here for 3 years and not issues at all. The area is full of SE.Asian families that are living their lives like anywhere else. You have a distorted view that reflects too many movies re-run in your mind. Drug addicts don't bother anyone anywhere and keep to themselves worry more about domestic violence in all areas and keep children off violent and explicit web sites in all areas and hope fully society will improve. The sexual assaults would be on the news if there were any and the last time I heard of a sexual assault was in close to the city. Get your facts straight before you run down someones area. Sounds like you rent and couldn't afford to buy into the area!
