We would like to be close to the CBD and the tram system. Also will want to be in an area with other young people ,a good night life and good rate of rent.

Answer 1

Fitzroy.= Brunswick Street . Collingwood.= Smith Street. Carlton ( for good food ) = Lygon Street. St.Kilda.  = Try the Vineyard. Cool bar  & late opening. CBD = Manchester Lane Jazz Club. North Melbourne = Errol Street and Queen Vic Markets. South Melbourne = Clarendon Street. (bars /clubs/ good food.) South Yarra = Chapel Street. Prahran = Commercial Road and Greville Street ( good lively bars ) CBD = Flinders Lane cafes. Southbank = Casino and endless eateries / bars . Richmond = Swan Street and Bridge Road.

Answer 7

Fitzroy, around smith st, brunswick street

it's kinda hippie, great culture and really convienient

richmond by teacher who wont stop going on about how good richmond was to live in

he says there's just always sooo much happening

both these places are inner suburbs so decent rent prices

Answer 8

Fitzroy - or Fitzroy North for a slightly quieter location but still very close to the action.

I reckon Richmond would be pretty good too.

It's been a while since I was in Melbourne, but I wonder if St Kilda itself is perhaps a bit expensive. And if you get too far from there it's pretty residential.

Great place though! You'll love it.

Answer 9

Docklands as it is close to the city (actually it is a part of the city)
