This suburb has gone unnoticed for awhile. Great family place to stay.

Pascoe Vale is 10 km north from CBD.It is known for its many parks ,gardens and schools.Good access to the city with its available infrastructure.
Ideal for the Busy and the Lazy.

Great Suburb, Close to the city , trams runs through all area's. Property prices going up up and away, great investment, Beautiful treelined streets, very quiet, great blend of families and young couples,

Tarneit is an emerging suburb in the City Of Wyndham and is 25km from CBD.
There is a large number of immigrants arriving from overseas and buying houses in Wyndham area.
Residents are car dependent as there is no public transport .It takes 40-50 minutes to reach the CBD peak hour.

Wyndham Shopping centre is the nearest shopping centre for Tarneit.This suburb is good for first home buyers as it is cheap.You can buy a 3 bedroom house with a decent land for $300-330K.

As a investor be mindful.This place recieves below average rent (average melbourne rent $360 per week).REIV stats shows that the property prices have risen by only 18% in the last 5 years.You may be better of buying in Hoppers crossing & Werribee as they have transport and leisure facility.
There are some government infrastructure put in place (rail link) which will be completed by 2015.I hope by then the propety prices will start to pick up.

I had lived in clayton between 2002-2007.This suburb is just perfect for students .It has good transport connection , food & accomadation facility plus it is close to Monash University.

Maribyrnong contains Highpoint Shopping Centre, one of Australia's largest shopping centres and 2nd largest in Victoria .The suburb is also home to the Anglers Tavern Hotel, located on the banks of the Maribyrnong River. The hotel is a popular night spot and eatery for locals and Melbournians alike.

The Route 57 tram provides public transport from Flinders Street Station in the city to West Maribyrnong running through Ascot Vale, Flemington and North Melbourne.

The Route 82 tram provides public transport from Moonee Ponds (Ascot Vale Road / Puckle Street) to Footscray (Leeds Street / Irving Street). It is one of only three Melbourne tram routes which does not travel through the Melbourne CBD.

There are also several bus routes that run through Maribyrnong, many terminating at Highpoint Shopping Centre. Buses run to Caroline Springs, Avondale Heights, East Keilor and Essendon. The introduction of Melbourne's first orbital bus line, the SmartBus, runs just north of Maribyrnong along Buckley Street in Essendon

Despite being an inner city suburb, like many western suburbs, there are significant areas of land within Maribyrnong that have yet been developed. Mostly owned by the Federal Government for the Department of Defence, the land is now seen as a prime opportunity for housing developments. The most notable development most recently under construction is Edgewater, located near Highpoint on Gordon Street which takes in spectacular city views.

The largest development to be announced by the State Government is the 128 hectare Defence site bound by the Maribyrnong river. 3,000 new homes are expected to be built, along with open parkland, shops and the inclusion of many decade old defence buildings in keeping with heritage. Construction is expected to commence is 2012 with the project taking 10 – 15 years to be fully completed

The suburb adjoins the Maribyrnong River Trail which is used by commuting and recreational cyclists along the Maribyrnong River. There are also numerous bike and walking trails which link the suburb to various other suburbs and take in some of the western suburbs greatest natural beauties, such as Pipemakers Park, Afton Street Conservation Park and Footscray Park.
