  • One of the key industrial areas of Melbourne, Williamstown has had a long history from being the first settlement of Melbourne, the location of the city's shipbuilding industry and its railway workshops and even a power plant built in the mid 20th century. One of the last surviving industrial cores of the world, it was lucky to survive the war intact while the rest of the planet was destroyed. The town is very attractive to look at, but this is because the town enforces a strict "gentrification" policy in an attempt to hide the rampant uncontrollable crime. This Gentrification Policy requires that homes be well-maintained, painted and landscaped. Homelessness and post-war "shacks" are banned. While the Council tries to enforce the order the majority of crimes are committed quietly meaning that most people Whom the town militia harass are normally innocent visitors littering or sleeping in the park or making too much noise after 11pm without a license. These people often end up in the many Prison Hulks in the bay when they are unable to pay the fines for these innocent misdeeds.
