Transport and parks in Parkville
What sits inside the Parkville boundary, counted from public data. These are facts about infrastructure, not a rating of the suburb.
Getting around
Parkville contains 1 metropolitan train station, 24 tram stops and 24 bus stops.
- 1metropolitan train station
- 24tram stops
- 24bus stops
A stop inside the boundary is not the same as a stop near a given home. 49 stops spread over a suburb can still leave one street a long walk from any of them, which is the sort of thing only an address can answer.
Parks and open space
- 58parks, reserves or open spaces
The count includes everything from a pocket park to a regional reserve, and does not weigh them by size. A large reserve on the edge of the boundary counts the same as a square of grass at the end of your street.
What these numbers cannot tell you
Two streets in Parkville can differ more than two suburbs do. Walking distance to a station, which school catchment a property falls in, and whether a lot sits in a flood or bushfire overlay are all address-level facts that a suburb average hides.
