East Melbourne: From posh to party, a suburb crawl for every Melbournian
Ah, Eastern Melbourne. Land of sporting legends (thanks MCG!), fancy houses with even fancier hedges, and enough cafes to keep your inner hipster humming. But hold your flat white, because Melbourne's east side is more than just cricket and smashed avo. Buckle up, because we're about to embark on a hilarious romp through some of its most interesting suburbs!
The Inner Circle: Where posh meets posh-er
Kew, Hawthorn, Camberwell: These guys are the aristocrats of the east. Think tree-lined streets, sprawling houses with driveways longer than your commute, and maybe even a butler or two (unverified). Great schools, excellent restaurants, and an air of refinement that could curdle milk. But hey, if you like your lawns manicured and your neighbours quiet, this is your kingdom.
Richmond: Now this one's a bit of a wildcard. By day, it's got all the trappings of an inner-city suburb – bustling cafes, trendy bars, and enough art galleries to make your head spin. But by night, well, let's just say Richmond transforms into a party animal. Just remember, if you see someone wearing a Collingwood scarf past 10 pm, steer clear!
The Great Beyond: Where affordability meets adventure
Box Hill, Glen Waverley: These guys are the burgeoning suburbs of the east. They're a bit further out, but offer a fantastic mix of affordability, convenience (hello, giant shopping centres!), and a multicultural vibe that's as exciting as a lamington sundae.
Ferntree Gully, Boronia: Look, let's be honest – these suburbs aren't exactly known for their nightlife. But what they lack in clubs, they make up for in charm. We're talking leafy streets, friendly locals, and a genuine sense of community. Plus, you're a hop, skip, and a jump away from the Dandenong Ranges – perfect for those weekend bushwalks to clear your head.
Tip: Skim once, study twice.
