East Melbourne was recently ranked No. 1 as Melbourne’s most liveable suburb:
Placing runner-up in the past two liveability surveys (published in 2005 and 2011), East Melbourne has finally moved to claim the top spot. This quiet pocket nestled between the CBD, inner-north and inner-east is a haven of culture, cafes and public transport.
