The Northern Metropolitan Region extends from the central business district to the outer northern fringes of Melbourne at Wallan and Wollert. It falls into two distinct regions. The southern region is a densely-populated, affluent and multi-cultural area, with formerly working-class areas such as Brunswick and Northcote now colonised by wealthy professionals. The northern region is also multi-cultural, but largely working-class. Not surprisingly, therefore, Northern Metropolitan is the most left-wing of the eight regions. Of the eleven lower-house seats in the Region, all are held by Labor, except Brunswick, Melbourne and Richmond, which have fallen to the Greens within the past few years.
