Fairfield Suburb Profile
Fairfield has always been considered a fairly safe suburb that’s popular with families, professionals and singles. There are plenty of schools for the kids as well as an abundance of parks and recreational facilities.
If you love shopping and the cafe scene, Station Street is the place to be with plenty of cafes and retail shops. Even though the suburb is fairly close to the city, it has a much more relaxed vibe and properties are still a little more affordable than nearby suburbs such as Abbotsford, Clifton Hill or Fitzroy.
Fairfield is also the place to shop if you fancy more boutique-type food retailers that offer fresh meats and produce. And, public transport is well-catered for if you need to travel further afield but want to leave the car at home.
With the Yarra River meandering through the suburb of Fairfield, there’s an abundance of green spaces where you can walk the dog or go for your morning jog.
