I really enjoyed this episode - the lady volunteering is the definition of what being kind and selfless is. Well done Spanian for documenting real life yarns - much appreciated 👏 🧿 let's OGG for the next episode 👏 👍
I have watched every episode exploring Public Housing across Australia. South Maroubra is pretty tame. I grew up in South Maroubra (aged 3 - 20s). I went back there regularly as my mother still lived there until about 2019. South Maroubra had Navy accommodation, and there were still some people with Navy connections there when we moved into our unit block in the early 90s. We did have the Bra Boys in the area in the 90s. They always put the rambunctious people near Lexington (Lexo). I was still able to walk to and from school and play in the streets with other kids without ever being hassled. You never saw needles on the ground on the streets or in the old metal playgrounds they had for kids (with those merry go grounds, rough slides, and jungle gyms). I was aware of people saying there were pedophiles near the large flats on Fitzgerald Ave. In saying that, it could be a bit rougher now depending on who has moved into the area. You had the soldier settlement in Matraville. I always found the townhouses at Matraville to be a bit more gross and rough. You were calling it Duffy's after Duffy's Corner which used to have a Duffy's fruit and vegetable market, a mad chicken shop, a bakery with great cinnamon donuts, and newsagent. They rebuilt Duffy's corner into subpar units/townhouses with shops, but they still retained the name. At Lexo, the hub used to be a TAB. So, the stores in the 90s were the TAB, bottle shop, video store, chemist, wholesale cake store, fish n chip takeaway, GP, butcher, Food 4 Less (supermarket), and I am pretty certain there was a furniture maker. The bakery came much later and then the Duffy's chicken shop moved to Lexo for a bit in place of the fish and chip shop. I think the stabbing at the bakery occurred in the early 2000s, so it was true what was said about the person upstairs getting angry with the owner for their early morning starts. La Perouse is rough and so is the stuff around the correctional complex in Long Bay. South Coogee was less pleasant than South Maroubra. I was also at Daceyville from birth to aged 3, but not on the soldier settlement side. The mad houses were originally for returned soldiers and widows (WW1).
Oh the most excitement was when the TRG turned up in response to some clown who was making his own fireworks and setting them off in his lounge room! LOL Late at night I saw these black shapes moving around behind the letterboxes and was trying to figure out what they were. Then suddenly they all ran towards the ramp of the units that guy was in and stormed into his unit. They even through a flash-bang through his window as the others broke down his door.
@@Oneway_Zave Yeah I was thinking the same. My literal next door neighbour was raped and stabbed, lady diagonally opposite us died from a heroin overdose, I witnessed stabbings, another neighbour of mine tried to offload a gun to me, all sorts of complete madness in Gallop Court over the 25 years I was there.
Thanx for that walk down memory lane. I moved to Sydney from Bathurst @12yo and spent quite a lot of time in hillsdale, Laper and Matraville. Little Bay is still one of my most fave picturesque place and my fondest memories are of the days spent swimming in Yarra Bay jumping off the concrete blocks. 💯👌🏽❤️
Maroubra is crazy cause half the suburb is rich as fuck and the other half is housing commission. I’m suprised the government hasn’t sold off the housing commission areas by now. That land is worth insane amounts
Lands not worth much with needles acting as land mines for any construction crew… cleaning costs alone mean it’s worthless in the long run. Why improve when you can move aussies in the system to Alice Springs and other shit holes while moving illegal asylum seekers into the big cities housing areas to fill the “Diversity” and “Multicultural” quotas…
Not worth much with cleaning costs in the long run. Can’t pay people to pick up and clean blocks of needles literally no one wants to do that shit. Also not to mention that Aussies are being moved to places like Alice Springs and other out of the way/picture ghettos to move in the asylum seekers and illegals to fill the DEI and “multicultural” quotas in the big cities. People who don’t care about the needles because they’ll literally shit in the streets.. because it’s what they do where they come from and they have no plans on actually adjusting or contributing to the system that they will only ever drain from the taxpayer….
THIS is the Spanian Video I like A LOT because its shows struggles, hardship and ordinary members of the community making a difference. When the video becomes a meet and greet circus its just unbearable to watch and thats when it gives off that vibe that its just glorifying the "ghetto" lifestyle and becomes a chest beating competition
@@alkhag1988 you are completely missing the point of what Skybar said. It is interesting to see a varied group of residents who do different things in the hood and have varied experience. That is interesting viewing. When it is a whole lot of tough guys following Spanian around, talking over each other to get his attention, it's cringe.
You can see why Rabbitohs fans are so devoted. For the longest time, Souths gave people in these areas an outlet and something to aspire to. Something positive to take their mind off their surroundings. Same reason Parra and Penrith fans are so devoted.
that talk u had with the Salvo's was so good. You no doubt have a big part in the scene we are proud to even see and witness that . Onward and upward Span.
Daceyville was the first public housing scheme in Aus so it was designed to be a model suburb at the time hence the garden to house ratio, architecture etc.
that's where i grew up.. From Coogee Hostel 1982 Army place to Daceyville Public House where crazy shit went down.. ain't gonna go into details.. people who grew up in public housing know what shit goes down
The lady who that man spoke of falling off her balcony was called Nelly. She was a very special person - a young mum of 3 kids. Her death a huge tragedy. That man who she was arguing with was a new boyfriend and her death was highly suspicious. RIP Nelly . You are not forgotten.
Ian Schaffa at the end, he’s a pro boxer, kick-boxer and MMA fighter. Repped Australia in Japan in K1 and MMA, gun fighter and now a coach at Smmash Australia in Maroubra
He fought three of Japans biggest fighters of all time in Kid Yamamoto, Caol Uno and Genki Sudo! K1 Heros and Max was no joke! So cool to see that he still is around. This guy is a pioneer of Australian MMA, you Aussies should be proud of Ian.
I laugh so much watching your videos. I was in Parramatta girls home as a teenager and we were fed breakfast with weevils in it, scrubed concrete with rocks embedded in it on our hands and knees for hours till the scrubbing brush wore down. Locked in a dungeon for days with only a canvas mattress on the floor that was dragged out every morning so you sat on concrete floor all day no windows. 2 minute showers humiliation of body checks everyday just in case you scratched something into your skin. And our only crime was running away from home. This was one of Australia's shame the Government needed us to do the washing for the mental hospital. Love your videos cannot wait to see the next.
We grew up at Eastlakes & Daceyville 1990 & always went to Maroubra Beach to score weed & hash from the pub.. Wassup Ian Shaffa You Mad Kunt! Ian was a Bad Boy from the hood up to no good but he became a Pro Kickboxer, heaps of vids on here and later started Street Buffet to feed the homeless in Woolloo.. Everyone From Botany, Mascot, Eastlakes knows Ian Schaffa.. Mad Dude.. 8:41 Spanian standing at the house i grew up in.. We used to have a cop shop across the balcony where i would flip sticks from at night using a pager lol. i saw the first Police WRX land there that was for chasing the ram raiders in redfern .. Captain jacka Crescent
Just to correct your history - it wasn't Captain Cook that settled in Botany Bay. Captain Cook actually only landed briefly on the southern part of Botany Bay at Kurnell earlier in 1770. Arthur Philip came into Botany Bay with the First Fleet on the 18th January 1788, but he found the place unsuitable and he moved up to Sydney Cove where he landed with the convicts on the 26th January 1788. It was the Frenchman La Perouse who was coming into Botany Bay as Arthur Philip was leaving on the 24th January. He actually landed at Frenchmans Beach (near present day La Perouse) stayed a few weeks, then sailed off into the Pacific, leaving the country to the British.
@@m1chi13lnatives in the very early years were treated better than the convicts by the prison guards which caused resentment from the convicts againat abbos
My family were one of the first to move into the Housing Commission in Portland Crescent ( Stuart Mould Place). Early 1960’s , I remember concrete floors, no window coverings, etc. I attended Mrs Mullers Kindy from there to Maroubra Bay Infants/Primary/ High School. It was back then a fantastic place to live. The beach, playing footy for the Wombats. Great place with great mates. When I was there as a kid everyone in our block were friendly, caring and had jobs. It was truly a fabulous place to live.
Back in the day, they used to house the partners of the inmates next to the gaol so they would have easier access to visits. A double-edged sword for the women and children.
Salvos lady is so damn beautiful and very knowledgeable about Street life, can tell shes had a hard life but still continues to help those in need honestly the world needs more people like her ☝🏾❤️☺️
be interesting to see an "out of the hood" with the lowest crime rate town with the least amount of housing commision for a comparison on how life can be different for so many australians those that either came from the hood and got out and also those that never experienced a hood life.
@@MrWheezyE420 Mosman used to be commission many years ago as was a lot of Milson's point. I nominate Beecroft and Cheltenham for out of the hood if you want suburban Sydney non criminal banality.
Fact check, there used to be light rail that went through maroubra, all the way down to la Perouse. It was a tram line that ran down Anzac Parade (and its why anzac parades dual lanes are 15m apart - the tram line ran through it)
The Southern Eastern Suburbs Housos Daceyville Kingsford/Eastlake’s (Gardeners Road Estates) The Elphinstone Rd Estate South Coogee Randwick Junction Flats Lexington Place Duffys corner Matraville/Maroubra Estates Hillsdale Estates & Flats The Bilga crescent estate Mirrabooka crescent estate & Flats Little bay Namatjira Flats The La Perouse Aboriginal Mission Spainian thank you for featuring, There’s no place like home.
I've lived 2 streets away from Daceyville for the past 11 years. Always walked down that main strip and through the housing commission, never had any issues pretty relaxed
A lot of these houses and areas would not be bad to live in, the problem is that you get those housos who cause chaos and make them miserable for the majority. Communities enforcing behaviours would help make these areas a lot more liveable
You are spot on mate. The same thing happens in the UK we need to re house the recividists and families in a secure housing environment well away from decent law abiding people
My nan lived in Bilga Cres in one of those little bedsits & backed onto the Long Bay wall & back in the 70's it was a stone wall & believe it or not when my footy went over the fence I would climb over to get it. When my mum eventually found out my footy was barred. Grew up in the area, school in Daceyville & it wasn't sketchy back in the 70's
I have never hung out in the housing commission areas. But South-East Sydney is a good place to live. Easy to get the city, close to major shopping centres and services, on the coast and still a lot of green space. Also even though there is no train, there has always been frequent buses along Anzac Parade so you can get to the city, Randwick or Bondi very easily.
@14:26 He landed in Kurnell next headland south - Hence the original signage entering Kurnell displayed “The Birthplace of Modern Australia” which has now been politically corrected for all the touchy feeleies to … “The Meeting Place”. Let me tell you Mr Spanios, that is the fkn yarn cuz.
I don't think he got the history, Cook and the first fleet landing right at all, not that it matters. All the lefties have been getting it all wrong for a long time.
The little houses are called 'bedsits', they are literal flats. Usually old people who can barely walk live in them and 'furniture surf' their way around. My nanny lived in one.
They are little beds are housing commission not for released sex offenders .My dear ol dad had a little white one around the corner. There is a facility for those offenders but it’s inside the fence. It’s like a half way house.
I've got an appointment with them tomorrow. Been dealing with them for 5 months and they have not delivered one thing they said they would as yet. Treating me like I'm invisible. I'll be homeless soon enough at this rate and if that happens, I won't be going back.
My hood. Grew up in Lexo. It's true the train never went to Maroubra Beach, however the tram did back in the real old days when my Mum was little in the 1950's.
The tram went all the way to Larpa, the snake man, Bare Island, all the bush around the golf course where my dad & his mates from Yarra Bay bush bashed car chassis around whilst sitting on milk crates. Crazy shit!
Hillsdale wasn’t houso and was small but has a reputation back in the day, those boys were connected to a lot of other areas like Fairfield boys, Auburn boys, Eastlakes, Matto, Waterloo and Liverpool area. Had a few incidents with them back in the 2000s. There was a chillian rapper from there that was so good too I forgot his name
Good point , and yes goes back to the early 80s. With both assyrians , latinos also Turk crews you mentioned . The rapper could be Raul - “the slerping monk “ around early 90s The Latino boys were always known nto the music hip hop , and house, and the early rave scene in Sydney .
My Aunty lived at the back of Lapa for years and behind her houso flats was the prison. At night the prison guards used to go walk about the blocks and make sure there was nothing suss happening outside the prisons and the residents were all g. Also spent alot of time as a kid amongst the lads in hillsdale. Southpoint was the hang out and easties too . Good Episode anios!
I’m so glad the salvo lady put you on the spot Anthony, you could do more with your platform bro and say it how it is please, it’s was really great to hear you speak on this
👍 to the Salvo's and the great work the volunteers do for the poor in many communities. I grew up in South Cronulla in 60s in a very very white Sutho Shire. Still is. And the riot was inevitable.
Bra I got offered a flat there at Malabar road through Housing Commission and when I went to check it out the lounge room floor carpets had blood stains all on them , it stunk and the windows were broken and they expected me to move in there like that 🤮 luckily I got on to Bridge housing and now living in Randwick happy 🤟
love maroubra, south sydney, full of good people who helped raise me, shame so many good people with mental difficulties and disabilities share the space with violent counterparts, can make it really hard to heal.
This is fascinating being an American. The amount of public housing is astounding that you walked through, assuming there is tons more you of course didn't go through. I am fascinated by the lack of homeless in your video where in America, the public housing is less and there are tons more homeless encampments. Some similarities but also a lot of differences. Interesting to see this is a different country.
Shockingly in some places in Australia homelessness is pretty much the same level as you guys, some days I’ve seen a bunch of tents in Melbourne city just filled of homeless jus having kick ons, full shocked me. It all depends age and area in Australia, some places have less resources.
its a great place for the most part ive had a crazy guy on a push bike chase me out of the park because he thought i was breaking into his house one time witch i wasn't but other then that nice place alotta old people
Daceyville reminds me of when I was in what was the old East Berlin suburb of Hoppegarten (also an old garden suburb), in Germany. Similar style houses, gardens and layout. Lovely and cosy
I didn’t expect much from this video but growing up in Lexington place myself and seeing these area’s I’m glad the way they spoke about the prison in Bilga and the fact that this is all on the beaches. Maroubra was a surfing town so they accommodated by building huge amounts of community housing to house them as they weren’t working and spending time in the ocean. It’s good to see that it’s quietened down but there’s still a lot happening behind the scenes and sad for kids growing up with drugs and broken homes.
My grandfather was the first RN at Long Bay. My mum grew up on Austral Street, Malabar and the house (which was owned by the DOC and isn't there anymore) backed onto the prison wall and was separated by an alley/backstreet on the OTHER side of Long Bay.
Daceyville was a bit ruckus back in the day when I was living there. Last 10 years it quieten down heaps. Them houses were usually built for the soldiers coming back from war. Most of them are war memorial heritage houses.
This video has changed my life. My whole outlook on everything that exists in this world, in fact even in the entire universe. I can never look at anything I know the same way ever again. This video represents emotions most humans could never comprehend. But I can. Thanks to this video I have been awakened to many things previously thought unimaginable. Thank you.
Salvo lady speakn true words us men whove lived it n learnt from it being crime n chaos..should in whatever way help our community people if they want it.
Hi there ❤ thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate it. You have more influence than you realise on the people around you, and the impact on their lifes could be truly profound. Loved your insight ❤
The streets that divide the Maroubra Housing Commission blocks are named after American warships that engaged in in the Battle of the Coral Sea. The land on which the blocks were built used to be a speedway. Nearby Heffron Park was the site of a naval storage facility. Malabar and Maroubra are unique suburbs. Long Bay Gaol is not only surrounded by housing commission but also houses that are worth millions. I went to a local public high school and the good thing about it was that mirrored Australian society. There were kids from families grappling with poverty as well as the middle class, a multitude of ethnic backgrounds.
Fun fact the light rail went all the way to Lapa from the city once upon a time. There was also a line that would take criminals from Surry Hills inside the walls of Long Bay jail.
Daceyville is a time capsule. It's insane that it exists right there. Mate that's so true about the immigrants living harder than the Aussies in the 60s and 70s. My old man migrated and it's was all reffos in South Sydney, all the way from Surry hills. You see it in those red brick 4 story apartments around mascot, east lakes etc.
yeah bra... my pa was in the brown brick flats northside in the early 40's.. was a bookie and violence in the home was standard.. would cook off yelling out my mothers name as she was in the surf not home ha ha
Love your work! Used to live opposite Boggo Road Jail in Brisbane which backs onto a public school and train station. Lots of crazy stuff in the late 80's :)
born an bred in blacktown but spent almost 10 years delivering all over eastern suburbs and southern ive been in nearly all those unit blocks and many houses the rich ppl sucked the housos were great ppl and sunnys takeaway was a daily lunch stop the food was great my fav was the chicken wings that you had and some of my best mates are from dacey
Having grown up in the hood of Condell Park when I was young I used to be jealous of my mates from Maroubra. I thought if I was ever ‘rich’ I would move to Maroubra.
@@annabanana16465wtf is this shit in Australia we have no hoods… maybe in the 1980s some of these areas were hoods but highly doubt it.. lived in the worst part of Sydney Punchbowl and that wasn’t even a hood.. no one said or did anything if you kept in your line yeah their were dealers but they are businessmen they aint shooting and killing people like in the movies hood lmaoo. Had mates that got locked up the next generation learnt that crimes doesn’t pay and changed for the better. Most went to trade school and own multi million dollar properties. Stay in school and go to tafe you will be fine.. don’t have to be a genius just smart enough to work. Most of the people in Australia are lazy so if you aren’t you will be fine. So many opportunities in Australia.. if an immigrant can make millions without knowing the language you should be able too as well..
Yea they’re housing commissions but remember 99.9% of the residents are good, honest, hardworking people not scumbags. I know this area well. It’s certainly not London or LA.
I painted the Community Centre (Kooloora) in Bilga about 20 years ago, with the help of an ex inmate artist from Long Bay Jail, plus over 100 tenants from public housing (including me) all assisted on it. Still looking good and no vandalism ‘cos we care about our effort.
Was wondering what Spanian was doing in the area a few weeks back when I saw him at Westfield Eastgardens. Must've been doing this video. Shoutout to 'Big Trei' he was my daughter's boyfriend for about 8 years, good to see you looking well.
That's a big call calling out a whole block as Pedos. You have the receipts to back that up? Or is some bloke going to get the shit kicked outta him for the only reason housing decided to put him there?
Spanian has always been like this, most people have learned not to take this dropkick seriously since he went mental on "internet bloggers" in the middle of one of his internet blog videos
Yeah Duffy's corner was a Mecca back in the day Weekends the carpark in the middle of Anzac Pde was always full Remember the Chicken Shop, Deli, fish shop, Bakery, News agency I think there was even a Butcher there
What’s a derro? If I had to guess it would be a scumbag loser who doesn’t have a job and blames all his problems on the government or racism or whatever else
Imagine being middle class cause you were born into it. Off the back of privilege and sheer luck that your bloodline played a part in stealing this land through means of genocide, whitewashing, rape and oppression… and then still be greedy enough to throw shade on others cause they live by the beach in the areas your ancestors designated for their ancestors cause white man already had stole everything else. & fxxxck coogee. Probably a pommy arent ya.
I’m from Daceyville and it’s not that bad. In fact, it’s mostly a senior dominant area where everyone knows each other. Majority people living here have been here since the 90s or so, and for the most part it’s a chill area. You got the odd block of flats & town houses which you passed that attract a sketchy crowd lol, but otherwise no dramas. Also, a lot of the places are being sold once the tenants pass away or move out, in the next 10 years I reckon Daceyville won’t be a houso-dominant suburb anymore.
Watching with particular interest because I am from Maroubra Junction so know all about Bilga Cres housing commission as well as all the other Maroubra Junction, South Maroubra, Maroubra Beach and South Coogee housing commission.
Thank you Spanian for opening our eyes and hearts to the struggles of the people. Now that you have shown how the majority of people and how they really live would be great to see how all the rich or politicians live. After all they are the ones that make the decisions. It would be great to actually see the comparison. If you've never seen the hood and substandard housing it would be really interesting to see how the other side lives. I am from a little settlement called Torere in New Zealand. I'm in my late 60's and love watching your vidz.
Where abouts? I get to Lennox through to Ballina often. Sometimes Evans head or Byron. I grew up in Wollongong and lived in newton for a long time. Used to go to Maroubra beach and occasionally Coogee. Good memories. I couldn’t afford to live there now.
43:08 Used to be a news agent here, IGA, chemist, post office, baker, fish and chip shop, etc. It's all gone now. I remember when the baker was murdered. Used to play football in the park there and ride my BMX around, back in the 80's.

I have watched every episode exploring Public Housing across Australia. South Maroubra is pretty tame. I grew up in South Maroubra (aged 3 - 20s). I went back there regularly as my mother still lived there until about 2019. South Maroubra had Navy accommodation, and there were still some people with Navy connections there when we moved into our unit block in the early 90s. We did have the Bra Boys in the area in the 90s. They always put the rambunctious people near Lexington (Lexo). I was still able to walk to and from school and play in the streets with other kids without ever being hassled. You never saw needles on the ground on the streets or in the old metal playgrounds they had for kids (with those merry go grounds, rough slides, and jungle gyms). I was aware of people saying there were pedophiles near the large flats on Fitzgerald Ave. In saying that, it could be a bit rougher now depending on who has moved into the area.
You had the soldier settlement in Matraville. I always found the townhouses at Matraville to be a bit more gross and rough. You were calling it Duffy's after Duffy's Corner which used to have a Duffy's fruit and vegetable market, a mad chicken shop, a bakery with great cinnamon donuts, and newsagent. They rebuilt Duffy's corner into subpar units/townhouses with shops, but they still retained the name.
At Lexo, the hub used to be a TAB. So, the stores in the 90s were the TAB, bottle shop, video store, chemist, wholesale cake store, fish n chip takeaway, GP, butcher, Food 4 Less (supermarket), and I am pretty certain there was a furniture maker. The bakery came much later and then the Duffy's chicken shop moved to Lexo for a bit in place of the fish and chip shop. I think the stabbing at the bakery occurred in the early 2000s, so it was true what was said about the person upstairs getting angry with the owner for their early morning starts.
La Perouse is rough and so is the stuff around the correctional complex in Long Bay. South Coogee was less pleasant than South Maroubra.
I was also at Daceyville from birth to aged 3, but not on the soldier settlement side. The mad houses were originally for returned soldiers and widows (WW1).
Oh the most excitement was when the TRG turned up in response to some clown who was making his own fireworks and setting them off in his lounge room! LOL
Late at night I saw these black shapes moving around behind the letterboxes and was trying to figure out what they were. Then suddenly they all ran towards the ramp of the units that guy was in and stormed into his unit. They even through a flash-bang through his window as the others broke down his door.
TLDR lad
Sounds like you were fairly sheltered and grew up with a totally different experience to many of us that grew up there.
@@Oneway_Zave Yeah I was thinking the same.

Maroubra is crazy cause half the suburb is rich as fuck and the other half is housing commission. I’m suprised the government hasn’t sold off the housing commission areas by now. That land is worth insane amounts
Yea mate feels good being the rich ones hehe 😜 daddy’s money
There is housing everywhere, people need housing, great content spanian , council need clean more areas though 🙏💫❤️
Weird how housing commission always equals shit hole. Something about welfare never pans out the way it was intended - or is it.
Lands not worth much with needles acting as land mines for any construction crew… cleaning costs alone mean it’s worthless in the long run. Why improve when you can move aussies in the system to Alice Springs and other shit holes while moving illegal asylum seekers into the big cities housing areas to fill the “Diversity” and “Multicultural” quotas…
Not worth much with cleaning costs in the long run. Can’t pay people to pick up and clean blocks of needles literally no one wants to do that shit. Also not to mention that Aussies are being moved to places like Alice Springs and other out of the way/picture ghettos to move in the asylum seekers and illegals to fill the DEI and “multicultural” quotas in the big cities. People who don’t care about the needles because they’ll literally shit in the streets.. because it’s what they do where they come from and they have no plans on actually adjusting or contributing to the system that they will only ever drain from the taxpayer….
THIS is the Spanian Video I like A LOT because its shows struggles, hardship and ordinary members of the community making a difference. When the video becomes a meet and greet circus its just unbearable to watch and thats when it gives off that vibe that its just glorifying the "ghetto" lifestyle and becomes a chest beating competition
He is glorifying the gheto lifestyle thats what he does its the whole point of into the hood if you dont like it dont watch it
@@alkhag1988 I did unsubscribe. I only watched this one because its where I grew up
It’s mostly all made up rubbish. I grew up there.
@@alkhag1988 you are completely missing the point of what Skybar said. It is interesting to see a varied group of residents who do different things in the hood and have varied experience. That is interesting viewing. When it is a whole lot of tough guys following Spanian around, talking over each other to get his attention, it's cringe.
@alkhag1988 it's definitely not the whole point.think you have missed a trick
Spanios went from "into the hoods" to "how to catch a predator" to "its all eats" in one episode😂
Dad’s against predators collab would be incredible
Yeah he's got it covered ❤😂
😂
Speak normally brother not hard
You can see why Rabbitohs fans are so devoted. For the longest time, Souths gave people in these areas an outlet and something to aspire to. Something positive to take their mind off their surroundings. Same reason Parra and Penrith fans are so devoted.
Rabbitohs were the dudes providing food in hard times.
Tough breed the Rabbitohs fan base are . Then next door you got the rich up themselves yuppies off the eastern suburbs roosters fans
Yeah they even gave South
Sydney some eastern suburbs teams
that talk u had with the Salvo's was so good. You no doubt have a big part in the scene we are proud to even see and witness that . Onward and upward Span.
Daceyville was the first public housing scheme in Aus so it was designed to be a model suburb at the time hence the garden to house ratio, architecture etc.
Facts !
Definitely the exception, not the rule.
It was for ex veterans actually.
that's where i grew up.. From Coogee Hostel 1982 Army place to Daceyville Public House where crazy shit went down.. ain't gonna go into details.. people who grew up in public housing know what shit goes down
@@Cesar_73_Jefe grew up in Astrolabe Rd Daceyville and also lived on Beauchamp's Rd at Duffys.
Will always have a soft spot for Dacey
The lady who that man spoke of falling off her balcony was called Nelly. She was a very special person - a young mum of 3 kids. Her death a huge tragedy. That man who she was arguing with was a new boyfriend and her death was highly suspicious. RIP Nelly . You are not forgotten.
Ian Schaffa at the end, he’s a pro boxer, kick-boxer and MMA fighter. Repped Australia in Japan in K1 and MMA, gun fighter and now a coach at Smmash Australia in Maroubra
One of the best blokes I met growing up taught me to stick up for myself
@@geeraid919 gave me a lesson in professional vs amateur 😂
He fought three of Japans biggest fighters of all time in Kid Yamamoto, Caol Uno and Genki Sudo! K1 Heros and Max was no joke! So cool to see that he still is around. This guy is a pioneer of Australian MMA, you Aussies should be proud of Ian.
I laugh so much watching your videos. I was in Parramatta girls home as a teenager and we were fed breakfast with weevils in it, scrubed concrete with rocks embedded in it on our hands and knees for hours till the scrubbing brush wore down. Locked in a dungeon for days with only a canvas mattress on the floor that was dragged out every morning so you sat on concrete floor all day no windows. 2 minute showers humiliation of body checks everyday just in case you scratched something into your skin. And our only crime was running away from home. This was one of Australia's shame the Government needed us to do the washing for the mental hospital. Love your videos cannot wait to see the next.
We grew up at Eastlakes & Daceyville 1990 & always went to Maroubra Beach to score weed & hash from the pub.. Wassup Ian Shaffa You Mad Kunt! Ian was a Bad Boy from the hood up to no good but he became a Pro Kickboxer, heaps of vids on here and later started Street Buffet to feed the homeless in Woolloo.. Everyone From Botany, Mascot, Eastlakes knows Ian Schaffa.. Mad Dude.. 8:41 Spanian standing at the house i grew up in.. We used to have a cop shop across the balcony where i would flip sticks from at night using a pager lol. i saw the first Police WRX land there that was for chasing the ram raiders in redfern ..

Mad vid my boy keep up the good shiit lad☝🏾❤️
Just to correct your history - it wasn't Captain Cook that settled in Botany Bay. Captain Cook actually only landed briefly on the southern part of Botany Bay at Kurnell earlier in 1770. Arthur Philip came into Botany Bay with the First Fleet on the 18th January 1788, but he found the place unsuitable and he moved up to Sydney Cove where he landed with the convicts on the 26th January 1788. It was the Frenchman La Perouse who was coming into Botany Bay as Arthur Philip was leaving on the 24th January. He actually landed at Frenchmans Beach (near present day La Perouse) stayed a few weeks, then sailed off into the Pacific, leaving the country to the British.
Where did you read this nonsense? Don't believe everything you read!!
Call cops mate😅
Yes, and they didn't fight with the Aboriginals. Arthur Phillip had strict instructions to be diplomatic where possible with the natives
still a gronk
@@m1chi13lnatives in the very early years were treated better than the convicts by the prison guards which caused resentment from the convicts againat abbos
My family were one of the first to move into the Housing Commission in Portland Crescent ( Stuart Mould Place). Early 1960’s , I remember concrete floors, no window coverings, etc. I attended Mrs Mullers Kindy from there to Maroubra Bay Infants/Primary/ High School. It was back then a fantastic place to live. The beach, playing footy for the Wombats. Great place with great mates. When I was there as a kid everyone in our block were friendly, caring and had jobs. It was truly a fabulous place to live.
That is really great feedback!! How wonderful for you all!!😊
Back in the day, they used to house the partners of the inmates next to the gaol so they would have easier access to visits. A double-edged sword for the women and children.
Salvos lady is so damn beautiful and very knowledgeable about Street life, can tell shes had a hard life but still continues to help those in need honestly the world needs more people like her ☝🏾❤️☺️
be interesting to see an "out of the hood" with the lowest crime rate town with the least amount of housing commision for a comparison on how life can be different for so many australians those that either came from the hood and got out and also those that never experienced a hood life.
I’d dub this - great concept! 🤙🏽😎
Why don't you go make a video about it then
Northern Suburbs Out Of The Hood. Coming to you live from the mean streets of Mosman and Greenwich.
@@MrWheezyE420 Mosman used to be commission many years ago as was a lot of Milson's point. I nominate Beecroft and Cheltenham for out of the hood if you want suburban Sydney non criminal banality.
Just need to check the census for the suburb with the least diversity
Bilga Cres is great. Grew up in Malabar public housing. now Matraville. I maintain the community garden in Bilga Cres, with local housing residents.
Fact check, there used to be light rail that went through maroubra, all the way down to la Perouse. It was a tram line that ran down Anzac Parade (and its why anzac parades dual lanes are 15m apart - the tram line ran through it)
They'll probably rebuild it one day
Stop lieing mate its not true

I've lived 2 streets away from Daceyville for the past 11 years. Always walked down that main strip and through the housing commission, never had any issues pretty relaxed
A lot of these houses and areas would not be bad to live in, the problem is that you get those housos who cause chaos and make them miserable for the majority. Communities enforcing behaviours would help make these areas a lot more liveable
You are spot on mate. The same thing happens in the UK we need to re house the recividists and families in a secure housing environment well away from decent law abiding people
my missus grew up in larpa and its such a trip when ppl outside of the area think all eastern suburbs is just rich areas lol
My nan lived in Bilga Cres in one of those little bedsits & backed onto the Long Bay wall & back in the 70's it was a stone wall & believe it or not when my footy went over the fence I would climb over to get it. When my mum eventually found out my footy was barred. Grew up in the area, school in Daceyville & it wasn't sketchy back in the 70's
I have never hung out in the housing commission areas. But South-East Sydney is a good place to live. Easy to get the city, close to major shopping centres and services, on the coast and still a lot of green space. Also even though there is no train, there has always been frequent buses along Anzac Parade so you can get to the city, Randwick or Bondi very easily.
Im from Daceyville and never had a problem in 30 years, it’s sweet as
Shoutout Trea boy took over the video haha !!!
@14:26 He landed in Kurnell next headland south - Hence the original signage entering Kurnell displayed “The Birthplace of Modern Australia” which has now been politically corrected for all the touchy feeleies to … “The Meeting Place”. Let me tell you Mr Spanios, that is the fkn yarn cuz.
I don't think he got the history, Cook and the first fleet landing right at all, not that it matters. All the lefties have been getting it all wrong for a long time.
I love the people around helping people with food that is a great neighbourhood trying to help the ones without mad❤❤❤
BIG respect to the Salvos. Always been on the frontline. Real ones.
Thank you ❤
Ayyye its good to see Trei! I know the brother has been doing good so its good to see him!
The little houses are called 'bedsits', they are literal flats. Usually old people who can barely walk live in them and 'furniture surf' their way around. My nanny lived in one.
I used to drive past those units when I was little and go home and make them out of Lego "pensioner flats"
They are little beds are housing commission not for released sex offenders .My dear ol dad had a little white one around the corner.
There is a facility for those offenders but it’s inside the fence. It’s like a half way house.
@@myfourkids4100 It's the little white ones I used to make out of Lego
Feel ya about your nanny I have an 88 year old mum who struggles to move around every day ❤ your comment got to me ❤
@@billeves4627wth are you on about
Good to see the Salvo’s crew supporting the community and old mate who I sometimes see up at Westfield Eastgardens collecting donations.
I've got an appointment with them tomorrow. Been dealing with them for 5 months and they have not delivered one thing they said they would as yet. Treating me like I'm invisible. I'll be homeless soon enough at this rate and if that happens, I won't be going back.
My hood. Grew up in Lexo. It's true the train never went to Maroubra Beach, however the tram did back in the real old days when my Mum was little in the 1950's.
The tram went all the way to Larpa, the snake man, Bare Island, all the bush around the golf course where my dad & his mates from Yarra Bay bush bashed car chassis around whilst sitting on milk crates. Crazy shit!
@@originalsusser I remember hearing so many stories about the hottie tracks in lapa back in the days
Go check out the 2018 ELB & MSB 2020 area Eastlakes Florence ave and maloney street flats and Mascot middlemiss and Johnston street. RIP Fredo!
Hillsdale wasn’t houso and was small but has a reputation back in the day, those boys were connected to a lot of other areas like Fairfield boys, Auburn boys, Eastlakes, Matto, Waterloo and Liverpool area. Had a few incidents with them back in the 2000s. There was a chillian rapper from there that was so good too I forgot his name
Good point , and yes goes back to the early 80s. With both assyrians , latinos also Turk crews you mentioned . The rapper could be Raul - “the slerping monk “ around early 90s
The Latino boys were always known nto the music hip hop , and house, and the early rave scene in Sydney .
@@Buddythedog360no the rapper was the lokest or something like that I can’t find any of his music though
The editing in your videos just keeps getting better man, keep going!
My Aunty lived at the back of Lapa for years and behind her houso flats was the prison. At night the prison guards used to go walk about the blocks and make sure there was nothing suss happening outside the prisons and the residents were all g. Also spent alot of time as a kid amongst the lads in hillsdale. Southpoint was the hang out and easties too . Good Episode anios!
I’m so glad the salvo lady put you on the spot Anthony, you could do more with your platform bro and say it how it is please, it’s was really great to hear you speak on this
Lol you should have seen the look of his face when I asked him that question 😂
It’s about time Anthony was asked some intelligent questions, well done. He also handled it well and very truthful
They are in the eastern suburbs , South Sydney’s boundary doesn’t go that far it only goes as far east as Centennial Lane in Centennial Park .
Typical Roosters supporter.
👍 to the Salvo's and the great work the volunteers do for the poor in many communities. I grew up in South Cronulla in 60s in a very very white Sutho Shire. Still is. And the riot was inevitable.
The crime rate in daceyville can be attributed to its small population, it's a tiny suburb that's basically just an extension of kingsford
Finally. Been wanting you to go out these ways for a whilez good to see it happen! Definitely wish you linked up with kobide dee as well though
Bra I got offered a flat there at Malabar road through Housing Commission and when I went to check it out the lounge room floor carpets had blood stains all on them , it stunk and the windows were broken and they expected me to move in there like that 🤮 luckily I got on to Bridge housing and now living in Randwick happy 🤟
why are you in housing
Lives in Eastlakes for 2 years, the flats there Florence and Maloney were old school hood… lots of ice and crime…
love maroubra, south sydney, full of good people who helped raise me, shame so many good people with mental difficulties and disabilities share the space with violent counterparts, can make it really hard to heal.
This is fascinating being an American. The amount of public housing is astounding that you walked through, assuming there is tons more you of course didn't go through. I am fascinated by the lack of homeless in your video where in America, the public housing is less and there are tons more homeless encampments. Some similarities but also a lot of differences. Interesting to see this is a different country.
Shockingly in some places in Australia homelessness is pretty much the same level as you guys, some days I’ve seen a bunch of tents in Melbourne city just filled of homeless jus having kick ons, full shocked me.
It all depends age and area in Australia, some places have less resources.
Daceyville is lovely, I like these houses with all those trees. I mean from the other side of the world it looks quite nice imo.
its a great place for the most part ive had a crazy guy on a push bike chase me out of the park because he thought i was breaking into his house one time witch i wasn't but other then that nice place alotta old people
wasn't it built for exserviceman?
Yes @Scottyo74
A lot of the houses at Daceyville were offered to people to buy and own you can tell which ones they are...
Daceyville reminds me of when I was in what was the old East Berlin suburb of Hoppegarten (also an old garden suburb), in Germany. Similar style houses, gardens and layout. Lovely and cosy
I didn’t expect much from this video but growing up in Lexington place myself and seeing these area’s I’m glad the way they spoke about the prison in Bilga and the fact that this is all on the beaches. Maroubra was a surfing town so they accommodated by building huge amounts of community housing to house them as they weren’t working and spending time in the ocean. It’s good to see that it’s quietened down but there’s still a lot happening behind the scenes and sad for kids growing up with drugs and broken homes.
i liked your talk to the community workers / salvo's, and the gym owner.
My grandfather was the first RN at Long Bay. My mum grew up on Austral Street, Malabar and the house (which was owned by the DOC and isn't there anymore) backed onto the prison wall and was separated by an alley/backstreet on the OTHER side of Long Bay.
Daceyville was a bit ruckus back in the day when I was living there. Last 10 years it quieten down heaps.
Them houses were usually built for the soldiers coming back from war. Most of them are war memorial heritage houses.
This video has changed my life. My whole outlook on everything that exists in this world, in fact even in the entire universe. I can never look at anything I know the same way ever again. This video represents emotions most humans could never comprehend. But I can. Thanks to this video I have been awakened to many things previously thought unimaginable. Thank you.
Did you forget to take your medication
What about it changed your life?
Spanian this video is possibly your best, thank you.
Pentrige has commission over the road flats like them so all you looked at is bluestone still there today coburg/preston east
Daveyville was a planned suburb for returning service people from the war. It’s always so quiet… never had a problem there and I’m there most days
Salvo lady speakn true words us men whove lived it n learnt from it being crime n chaos..should in whatever way help our community people if they want it.
Hi there ❤ thank you so much for your comment. I really appreciate it.
You have more influence than you realise on the people around you, and the impact on their lifes could be truly profound.
Loved your insight ❤

The streets that divide the Maroubra Housing Commission blocks are named after American warships that engaged in in the Battle of the Coral Sea. The land on which the blocks were built used to be a speedway. Nearby Heffron Park was the site of a naval storage facility. Malabar and Maroubra are unique suburbs. Long Bay Gaol is not only surrounded by housing commission but also houses that are worth millions. I went to a local public high school and the good thing about it was that mirrored Australian society. There were kids from families grappling with poverty as well as the middle class, a multitude of ethnic backgrounds.
Fun fact the light rail went all the way to Lapa from the city once upon a time. There was also a line that would take criminals from Surry Hills inside the walls of Long Bay jail.
Daceyville is a time capsule. It's insane that it exists right there.
Mate that's so true about the immigrants living harder than the Aussies in the 60s and 70s. My old man migrated and it's was all reffos in South Sydney, all the way from Surry hills. You see it in those red brick 4 story apartments around mascot, east lakes etc.
My grandfather back in the 1960's built a house in Matraville, which I was born in and spent my early childhood around that area in the 90's.
yeah bra... my pa was in the brown brick flats northside in the early 40's.. was a bookie and violence in the home was standard.. would cook off yelling out my mothers name as she was in the surf not home ha ha
Love your work! Used to live opposite Boggo Road Jail in Brisbane which backs onto a public school and train station. Lots of crazy stuff in the late 80's :)

born an bred in blacktown but spent almost 10 years delivering all over eastern suburbs and southern ive been in nearly all those unit blocks and many houses the rich ppl sucked the housos were great ppl and sunnys takeaway was a daily lunch stop the food was great my fav was the chicken wings that you had and some of my best mates are from dacey
Having grown up in the hood of Condell Park when I was young I used to be jealous of my mates from Maroubra. I thought if I was ever ‘rich’ I would move to Maroubra.
The 'hood' in Condell Park 😂😂😂 Bwahahahaha
🤣🤣 Condell Park is definitely no hood. It's no point piper either, but it's definitely not a fucking hood. Lol
lol 😂 pleasant,cookie cutter, suburban Condell Park
@@annabanana16465wtf is this shit in Australia we have no hoods… maybe in the 1980s some of these areas were hoods but highly doubt it.. lived in the worst part of Sydney Punchbowl and that wasn’t even a hood.. no one said or did anything if you kept in your line yeah their were dealers but they are businessmen they aint shooting and killing people like in the movies hood lmaoo. Had mates that got locked up the next generation learnt that crimes doesn’t pay and changed for the better. Most went to trade school and own multi million dollar properties. Stay in school and go to tafe you will be fine.. don’t have to be a genius just smart enough to work. Most of the people in Australia are lazy so if you aren’t you will be fine. So many opportunities in Australia.. if an immigrant can make millions without knowing the language you should be able too as well..
Yea they’re housing commissions but remember 99.9% of the residents are good, honest, hardworking people not scumbags. I know this area well. It’s certainly not London or LA.
I painted the Community Centre (Kooloora) in Bilga about 20 years ago, with the help of an ex inmate artist from Long Bay Jail, plus over 100 tenants from public housing (including me) all assisted on it. Still looking good and no vandalism ‘cos we care about our effort.
We used to play basketball there
Was wondering what Spanian was doing in the area a few weeks back when I saw him at Westfield Eastgardens. Must've been doing this video. Shoutout to 'Big Trei' he was my daughter's boyfriend for about 8 years, good to see you looking well.
That's a big call calling out a whole block as Pedos. You have the receipts to back that up? Or is some bloke going to get the shit kicked outta him for the only reason housing decided to put him there?
Spanian has always been like this, most people have learned not to take this dropkick seriously since he went mental on "internet bloggers" in the middle of one of his internet blog videos
Agreed, that comment is totally not true
Yeah they do the blocking off like that in Collingwood to stop people walking between the units and blocks of flats
Maroubra rocks. Best vibes, 1st handstand I ever got was on that beach. The place is special 🔥
fishing as well....
handstand?
HDB from way back 2036. Thankyou for showing my old hood to the world Spanian
Who remembers the Duffy Brothers fruit shop????
Yeah Duffy's corner was a Mecca back in the day Weekends the carpark in the middle of Anzac Pde was always full Remember the Chicken Shop, Deli, fish shop, Bakery, News agency I think there was even a Butcher there
The DJ is really knowledgeable . . . this one is a good one.
The salvos lady is Julia, it's good to see her.
Housing in Maroubra and La Perouse? 5 mins from Coogee. Paradise on earth, Imagine being a derro and living in that amazing place.
What’s a derro? If I had to guess it would be a scumbag loser who doesn’t have a job and blames all his problems on the government or racism or whatever else
Imagine being middle class cause you were born into it. Off the back of privilege and sheer luck that your bloodline played a part in stealing this land through means of genocide, whitewashing, rape and oppression… and then still be greedy enough to throw shade on others cause they live by the beach in the areas your ancestors designated for their ancestors cause white man already had stole everything else.
& fxxxck coogee. Probably a pommy arent ya.
I used to have accommodation at Endevour house at Maroubra, and I did walk around when I had time it seemed pretty quiet when I was there.
I’m from Daceyville and it’s not that bad. In fact, it’s mostly a senior dominant area where everyone knows each other. Majority people living here have been here since the 90s or so, and for the most part it’s a chill area. You got the odd block of flats & town houses which you passed that attract a sketchy crowd lol, but otherwise no dramas. Also, a lot of the places are being sold once the tenants pass away or move out, in the next 10 years I reckon Daceyville won’t be a houso-dominant suburb anymore.
So when you look at it in a percentage, it's a higher percent, but it's only because Daceyville is a small area.
This is crazy as! Had no idea. Great episode dude.
Bruhhhh 😂 I can’t believe he confronted the potential pedos 😂😂😂. Yessss Spanian, definitely one of your best.
They actually are pedos living in the huts but are all done quietly otherwise sometimes angry victims or relatives of the victims get proper justice
Can’t believe it either
I'd shit my pants
Potential Pedos? WTF you talking about. This idiot going around making accusations with absolutely no evidence.
A beautifully quiet tour of the hoods..... An episode good for an old man... peaceful respectful and enjoyable ❤😂
Watching with particular interest because I am from Maroubra Junction so know all about Bilga Cres housing commission as well as all the other Maroubra Junction, South Maroubra, Maroubra Beach and South Coogee housing commission.
Thank you Spanian for opening our eyes and hearts to the struggles of the people. Now that you have shown how the majority of people and how they really live would be great to see how all the rich or politicians live. After all they are the ones that make the decisions. It would be great to actually see the comparison. If you've never seen the hood and substandard housing it would be really interesting to see how the other side lives. I am from a little settlement called Torere in New Zealand. I'm in my late 60's and love watching your vidz.
