are there greektowns in australia like in usa?

Answer 1

I live in the suburb of Oakleigh in Melbourne. I sometimes feel like I'm the only non-Greek person here.

It's quite good....heaps of Greek restaurants, lots of coffee shops and every afternoon the old Greek men sit outside the cafes sipping coffee, smoking their cigarettes and chatting with each other in their native language. It's a good place to live.

Answer 2

I'm assuming that a Greektown is a bit like a Chinatown, but more Greek. The closest is probably along Lonsdale St in Melbourne.

There are strong Greek communities all around Australia, but they are spread all over, not really concentrated in specific spots.

At least, that's how I see it. Maybe it I had Greek heritage I'd know different, so I'll accept corrections.

Answer 3

Melbourne supposedly has the highest Greek population of all cities in the world apart from Athens.
As pointed out by Tony, in particular the South Eastern suburb of Oakleigh, but there are many Greeks all aruond Melbourne.

Answer 4

If you want a bit of Greece in Australia then Melbourne is a must.It has the largest Greek population outside of Athens.
Yassou !

Answer 5

There are many places to celebrate greek lifestyles in all capital cities (perth, darwin, adelaide, hobart, sydney, brisbane, melbourne and canberra) as australia is an openly multicultural city
