One of the determining criteria of an address of residence is NOT to be next to or within walking distance to commercial area, particularly where alcohol is served, sleazy entertainment provided or dim dark lanes only rodents would dare to roam at night.

I had written to local papers when they approved the construction of a new six-storey Karaoke bar with licence to open to 3 am warning that more trouble would be looming and organised gangs would flourish.

Unfortunately, peace has been around since the founding of Glen Waverley, and most people have never experienced what life is like when gangs start to carve up their turfs in an area. Basic instinct of wild animals is after all territorial, or rather the urge to occupy and own territories.
