Docklands · Melbourne VIC

Suburb intelligence from Melbourne's published auction results — all Melbourne suburbs

PropertyEye tracks live listings in Sydney and Brisbane today — Melbourne pages are built from published auction results (2021–2026), our price model and weekly clearance data. Live Melbourne tracking is on the roadmap.

Price model — what the model says a typical home here achieves at auction

ConfigurationModel estimateRangeComparable sales
1-bed unit$396k$341k–$462k30
2-bed unit$610k$550k–$682k30
3-bed unit$821k$721k–$944k30

Modelled from 169,861 Australian auction sales (2021–2026). Melbourne cells run on the base model (suburb prior + configuration + time) without the Sydney-only land/school/transport features — ranges are honest about the wider uncertainty. Estimates from comparable auction results — not valuations or financial advice.

Crime — recorded criminal incidents, year ending March 2026

Index 100 — well above the Greater Melbourne average (50 = average) · 134.8 key incidents per 1,000 residents · year-on-year +1%

Most recorded: Other theft (483) · Steal from a motor vehicle (282) · Steal from a retail store (222)

Key offences: homicide, assault, sexual offences, robbery, property damage, burglary/break-and-enter, theft (CSA subdivisions A10/A20/A30/A70/B20/B30/B40). Rates are per RESIDENT — suburbs with heavy visitor/entertainment traffic (CBD, nightlife strips) read high on this basis.

Schools whose ADDRESS is in Docklands — residents are often zoned to schools in neighbouring suburbs too; check the actual zone for any address at findmyschool.vic.gov.au. ICSEA is the socio-educational advantage of a school's community (national average ~1000) — a demographic measure, not a quality or results score.

Getting to the CBD — peak, from the suburb centre

About ~23 min door-to-CBD: 18 min walk to Southern Cross (train) + ~1 min typical peak wait + 4 min scheduled ride.

PTV GTFS (metropolitan train + tram) (open data) — scheduled weekday services, rail family only (buses excluded); walk = suburb centre to nearest station, crow-flies ×1.3 at 80 m/min; wait = half AM-peak headway capped at 6 min; ride = median scheduled time to the CBD hub. Estimates for the suburb CENTRE — your block differs.

40 monthly points from archived Domain search pages, 2016-05-25 → 2026-03-06 (Domain-only — systematically lower than the total market; archive coverage has gaps and they stay visible as gaps). Historical record, not a live count — live Melbourne tracking is on the roadmap.
