Thanks.

I am looking to live in an area that is close to walking distance from a train that heads out to Bacchus Marsh. I do not mind at most a 40min commute.

I want to live close to the city. Maybe a 10min train ride in would be nice at most. But ultimately a tram in to the city would be preferred.

A nice neighbourhood/suburb with many daily necessities close by. (Grocers, bookstores, docters, pharmacies etc..)

I hope this provides a clearer picture.

Thanks again. 

Good day all.

I have been offered a job in Bacchus Marsh but would like to live as close to Melbourne as possible and commute to work daily. 

I would therefor like to know what suburbs, I suppose western, would be good options for me? Obviously looking at proximity to a train station with a direct line to Bacchus. Safe suburbs are key as I hear there are youth gangs out in the west making an appearance.

I was looking at Footscray. Can anybody offer any information surroundthing this suburb? Or others that might be appealing?

Thank you in advance.
