  Coburg North most definitely has been breached and I think Pascoe Vale has too. The M80 is the new fence… based on the style and pattern of the developments in those suburbs though, I would be very surprised if the hipsters (in itself an outdated term now, again…) made it there. Much more car dependent and fewer mixed use/retail spaces compared to the postwar areas.

    @just_kitten @Thornburywitch Many of the OG hipsters have moved west to Footscray and Yarraville.

    Or they decamped during the pandemic, and migrated to one of the towns around Castlemaine or Belgrave.

    There's also a steady cross-border migration to Newtown and Marrickville in Sydney.

      Definitely heading west - add Spotswood, Seddon and Newport to that list. Though I’ll be darned if I start seeing them any further! Altona, maybe.

      Castlemaine has been known as North Northcote for a while now, I wonder what other towns are gaining that reputation.
