The Suburban Dream


 

We meet the heroes bringing hope to one of Australia’s most troubled suburbs.

As Australia’s population has grown, cities have fanned out in an ever-growing sprawl of new neighbourhoods. The dream of owning a quarter-acre block is etched in the national psyche.

But in many low socioeconomic suburbs, community bonds are missing or frayed. In Armadale, on the outskirts of Perth, unemployment and social despair are rising. But a band of local heroes is trying to turn the fortunes of this community around.
