Heidelberg West

"So very glad we got out."

There are a lot of great people in this place and a lot of deeply entrenched problems. I lived there with my young family for a number of years and never felt safe.
There are people who want change.
There are young families.
The parks are fantastic.
But there is a lot of screaming in the streets, burglaries, stolen vehicles, things set on fire, children roaming unsupervised, and alcohol and substance abuse. I could never, in good conscience, advise anyone with a family to buy into the area.

Great for

  • Proximity to city
  • Close to University, Hospitals and Shopping centres

Not great for

  • Alcohol and substance abuse
  • Burglaries
  • Old commission places
  • Some areas look in need of an update
  • Education and living standards
  • Poverty

Hey Brad, we 100% agree with you. We were keen to get on the property ladder in a modern standalone house within close distance of the CBD where my wife and I both work. The plan was to give it five years, which we did, before upgrading to wonderful, peaceful Macleod. It served it's purpose.

I think I prefer Heidelberg west

i believe it's a fine neighbourhood to live in, if you have a problem with the dodgy looking people around there, just keep to yourself, they only start a fight with the people who confront them or piss them off. stay away from the troubled areas and you will be great

End of 2020 they demolished all the commission flats on Bell Street. I predict an upswing, at least for that end of HBerg west.
