@Joe, voted the worst? Any link?

Thank you @Johann. Really appreciate the insight into the weaknesses of the area. So, I guess that was the shire's letter to the parliament to lobby for awareness and of course extra funding.

So, you are not even favouring the area even in 5+ years?

Thanks to everyone. So no-one thinks that the Toolern Precinct going to uplift the area?

Thank you for the comments. I do understand the maths. I need your assessment of the area. I am looking at a property development in Brookfield, called Veneziane.com.au; it would be for long term settlement about 4-5 years from now.

I would like to know what people think of Melton, Brookfield area in about 5 years from now?

thanks in advance.
