Spent a couple of nights in Yagoona, went full Will Smith in I Am Legend.

Locked up all the shutters, the door, and very seriously considered sleeping in the bathtub.

Davoren Park. Onus is on anybody to put up a case of a worse metropolitan suburb.

Worst regional town in Australia is a discussion of interest to me. Meekatharra seemed like worst place I had driven through. I did not spend enough time there to make a proper judgement. It looked bad enough to make South Hedland seem normal.

Man... Whalan.

In SA its gotta be Daveron Park: Davoren Park had increased its reputation for violence and dysfunction to the point where it had become "a place where emergency crews fear to go.

Never seen so many condemned houses.

Maybe five years ago. Fair bit of redevelopment has gone on in that area in recent times, and in the surrounding suburbs over the past 10-15 years.

It is still completely ****ed. Is there a suburb that can be named as worse?

Still a crap area.

I'll add Macquarie Fields and most of the Liverpool area to that too.

Seems like bigfooty treats anywhere west of Strathfield as downtown Mogadishu though.

Cairns

Too soon?

 

[Bluelegs]

Too soon?

No one was discussing it on Bigfooty.

Add Tennant Creek to that, very ordinary.

+1 to Tennant Creek.

Ali Curung, Elliott, Barrow Creek,...

Pretty much any small town in the NT. Absolute shitholes, every last one of them. Lol at the people nominating suburbs of Adelaide or Melbourne. They've clearly never left the city.

 

[Grogg]

Dareton, Boulder, Elizabeth all pretty ordinary but Fitzroy Crossing tops the lot for shitness easily.

 

[X_box_X]

Melton

Melton isn't bad.

Melton South on the other hand.

 

[outabounds]

Add Tennant Creek to that, very ordinary.

This!! Tennant Creek is a hole. Every window of every house has security bars over them.

 

[kfc1]

Roebourne

Can't argue with that

Yalgoo

lol careful or you'll have bushie/sliced/riseup/whateverhisnextaliasis on your back

 

[Upgrayedd]

Like serious, Your naming blue class suburbs in the east coast, Please go to some of the small country towns in Queensland/NT/WA/SA and eat your words

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Moe gets a bad wrap because of that Leskie thing. It is nowhere near as bad as Morwell, which is a real shithole.

The three suburbs that ive frequented that i never feel safe are Carey Park (bunbury), Ashfield and Kenwick. Carey Park is probably the only place i would feel it is just about necessary to carry a weapon though. Nightmare place.

 

[Sydney Bloods]

unless its a rural suburb in the middle of no where it shouldn't make the list. Everyone who travels by car a lot knows what i mean.

Usually have a general store/post office in the same building that sells mainly milk chips and dunny paper and dog food.

usually have a shitty IGA that for some reason always has patches of water despite the only source of water being a half dry creek bed that flooded in 1986 as the road sign proudly boasts. s**t leaking out of the fresh veg boxes even though the goods are half rotten and clearly haven't seen water in months.
two pubs within spitting distance and a cop shop on along the way, a shitty old servo that clearly used to be a shell until they went independant and just painted of=ver where it said shell in black paint. absolutely no entertainment and at least 5-10 kids out in the street in the middle of a school day.

usually capped off by an actual old school telephone box that still says telecom graffiti all over and at least one window shattered but never completely smashed. all the houses look circa 1960 and the entire town has this sort of depressed look on their face like anyone of them might decide to to french kiss a 12 gauge a moments notice.

For those who say Frankston you can tell you don't live there. Frankston North or more accurately the Pines is the area that throws up the biggest challenges of living. Frankston South is actually a lovely area.

As mentioned somewhere remote with no job prospects and nothing to do would be the worst. No one might know of the town because no one has been there and that's why it's the worst.

Elliot, NT
