Northcote is great. Although I yearn to live nearer to the beach, I’ve still been pretty darn happy living here for over 10 years.

It’s close to lots of different forms of public transport, is socially diverse (lots of cultural groups, age diversity, openly gay folk, boguns, bohemians, crazy folk, regular folk, etc…) it has lots of restaurants, galleries, parks and funny little shops.

It’s a nice little suburb.
