Data + TV Points in Vermont South

Vermont South runs near 1897 people per square kilometre. Television points added over the years are usually daisy-chained, which is why the signal drops at the last one. Vermont South sits about 19 kilometres out in Whitehorse. Old daisy-chained television points are the most common thing we replace.

Whitehorse covers Vermont South. Council only matters where the work changes a heritage-controlled exterior. Because Vermont South backs onto Burwood East and Forest Hill, a second visit is rarely a second trip for us.

For scale, the 2021 census counted 11954 people in Vermont South, across about 6.3 square kilometres of Whitehorse, postcode 3133. A note on how Vermont South developed: The original purchaser of the Morack Road area was John Lobb, who in 1862 subdivided the land into a village called Norwich. Build era decides whether there is a usable roof space, which is the difference between a neat job and a compromise.

Vermont South sits inside a block we cover properly rather than occasionally. The neighbouring suburbs on that run are Burwood East, Forest Hill, Glen Waverley and Vermont. From our Boronia workshop Vermont South is about 9.1 kilometres west, which is a short enough run that we can usually fit a look-in around another job rather than making it a separate trip.

There is more to the local history than that: The Burwood Rise estate, which occupies a large area between Livingstone and Stanley Roads (and around Dalroy Crescent & Consort Avenue), was developed between 1968 and 1971.
