Abstract
In 1966 Lois Bryson and Faith Thompson were invited to carry out a community study in 'Newtown', a newly planned suburb on the fringe of Melbourne. As part of the Australian Living Standards Study (ALSS), the Australian Institute of Family Studies collected data of a similar nature in Newtown during 1991. This article briefly describes a new draw on these data in order to explore how family and community life have changed in Newtown between 1966 and 1991.
