When I was young, I lived in the western suburbs, Laverton, and through teenagehood, I lived in Narre Warren, both renound for poor people, bogans, hoons. Then I head into the city, and you see just as many poor people, drunken bogans and so on. Every suburb have their bad eggs, living in various countries proves the same thing. In todays society, many people aren’t so well off, it just happens they are in the outer suburbs because housing is cheaper, since its further out. Every country has illegal drug use, hoons and weapons. IT HAPPENS.
But even the yucky suburbs have beautiful houses. Every city in the world has their not so nice suburbs.
Butttttt, nevertheless, the worst suburbs would have to be:
Clayton, Noble Park, Yarraville, Seddon/Footscray, Richmond (only parts), St. Albans..
You know.

Definitely any suburb that has not been mentioned in the previous posts.
Why should they miss out?

It would be far easier to name the best suburbs of Melbourne, there are only a handful of them.
Melbourne is over populated, under resourced starting to look like the States………crime, gangs, weapons, illegal substance use and inadequate housing.

wow what a list I see plainly to stay away from Footscray and DDong… I did have a bad personal experience with Footscray hospital ( stabbed by a needle that had been left on my bed….. so I think I’ll stick to boganville Laverton North. And Sunshine just scares the creeps outta me.

I frankly admit melbourne is the best city to live in . Every subhurb has a beauty of its own, with its own creativity. If any subhurb has to have a bad name, it could be one or few of its streets thats tarnishing the image of the whole town. I dont even blame the youth. They are a budding power that need to be carefully harnessed and lovingly directed to achieve unbelievable results.
