thumbs_downMaybe it’s the crime, maybe it’s the bogans, maybe it’s a street with a bad reputation, maybe it’s just the nasty surrounds. Often, it’s places where the real estate value is extremely low.

There’s a few contenders for worst suburb in Melbourne – which bad Melbourne suburb gets your vote as a no good area, and why?

    Definitely Narre Warren. I had the displeasure of living there for over a year. Never again. Hoonsville and nothing nice can be said about it! 

  2. AnnB99 says:

    Toorak!  Followed closely by Brighton!

  3. Jessica says:

    Dandenong. So dirty!

  4. millo says:

    Gottabe Toorak – full of up-themseves ponces

  5. Jim says:

    Glen Iris. Just is.

    Heidelberg West.  Makes taxi drivers assess you carefully.  Parks are for setting cars on fire.  Waterways are for shopping trolleys.  The high point – guy who spent the day outside the commission flats across the road.  With a bullhorn to tell the world about his cheating ex.  To this day his chant to passing cars stays with me, so when ever I think or hear Heidelberg West it is followed by “Nothing but the best.”

    im sure the up-themselves ponces in Toorak are much better than the violent drunks and druggies of footscray and st albans
