Erskineville
Erskineville
Small streets, Victorian cottages and terraces, and a pleasant community feel.

Erskineville, Sydney (inner west)

In the 1990’s, a great movie came out called the Erskineville Kings. It focused on the lives of two brothers who grew up in what has traditionally been a rough, working class suburb. Erskineville still has a working class population, but when property prices in Newtown began moving north, new, creative blood began moving into Erskineville. It is an alternative oasis in Australia's glitziest city, with a good village feel a growing gay population and is a short walk to Newtown. (More information below and to your left <<< )
