Houses going up at Point Cook, west of the city. Planners and architects say Melbourne's new estates and the houses on them are cheaply and poorly designed.
如今在墨尔本西部，象Point Cook这些新开放的居民住宅区新房林立，价格也便宜，距离市中心也不远，但是，地产开发商以利润为中心的“指导思想”造成这些新区的规划建设出现越来越多的问题。
墨尔本大报《The Age》2006年10月21日专文探讨了这种现象，并援引建筑设计规划专家的话表示，这些新区的房产规划设计廉宜而糟糕，对居住在那里的居民生活造成极大影响，并将无法 适应下一代人对生活品质的要求。
这种现象不仅仅发生在墨尔本西部的新开发住宅区，东南更偏远一些区如Narre Warren South等也同样存在这种问题。

■Blocks of land up to 1000 square metres, far bigger than residents needed or often wanted.
■Average house sizes of 253 square metres, up from 176 square metres 15 years ago, despite the average household size falling.
■Houses built too close together, leading to noise and privacy issues.
■Too little use of sustainable technology such as solar panels and greywater, and too much reliance on air-conditioning for cooling instead of siting a house properly and building eaves and verandas.
