Close to everything - schools, plazas, CBD, freeways and airport. Good little pocket, esp in east. Period homes well maintained & leafy streets, also town houses aplenty. Good neighbors who look out for each other and excellent public transport. Brimbank Council is making some good announcements, starting with the total makeover of the train station.. If developments like these keep coming at a solid pace, plus the newly established growth zone in the town center with apartments and new shopping redevelopment, St Albans will continue to develop as a suburb. Convenience in public transport is what sets this suburb apart from many, you have 3 stations covering the range of the suburb, Albion, St Albans and Keilor Plains station, reachable 5 mins drive from across the suburb. For schools you have plenty to choose, from the very best St Paul's school to Sacred heart and St Albans meadows for primary and St Albans public school for secondary.

We bought about 2 years back and now the appreciation is close to double, with the way the suburb is developing I won't b surprised if the blocks here are sold 800+ in the bear future.
