Beware of Fawkner & Dallas. They look close but the agents are likely putting lipstick on the pig's butt hole.
I know about Dallas. But is fawkner really that bad? I already sleep with a kitchen knife under my mattress within easy reach.
The place I looked at there is the one that smelt of misery and had a garage dweller. How representative is this? ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
Fair call.
it's in the middle of nowhere, has many factories, a large cemetery and lots of run down housing. Doesn't seem like a community.
Yeah. I didn't mind the test train run, and can put up with much nearby industrial, but looking around the adjacent few blocks, you would be on your own Re fruit trees & borrowing ladders
Unfortunately if i want to live in a house and not an apartment, that far from the city is what I can afford whilst saving my deposit.
I can't justify paying more than 2500 pcm for rent.
Ascot Vale and Flemington has cheap houses.
Will have a look. Cheers!
