@just_kitten @Thornburywitch Many of the OG hipsters have moved west to Footscray and Yarraville.
Or they decamped during the pandemic, and migrated to one of the towns around Castlemaine or Belgrave.
There's also a steady cross-border migration to Newtown and Marrickville in Sydney.
Definitely heading west - add Spotswood, Seddon and Newport to that list. Though I'll be darned if I start seeing them any further! Altona, maybe.
Castlemaine has been known as North Northcote for a while now, I wonder what other towns are gaining that reputation.
