Grew up near Cabra in the 90s, used to play ball at the PCYC. I remember my mum having someone OD and die in her arms on John St. Cabra was first settled by loads of Italian migrants in the 60s & 70s before it became a Vietnamese community. Crazy how much its cleaned up since then. Mad vid boys.

[@daveauscards]

This is so true. My dad worked there in the late 80s and 90s and was an italian migrant.

[@goldcoastlandbasedfishing.1928]

I grew up there back in the 1980’s. Heroine was a real problem back then. China town was the epicentre for dealers back then dealing ‘H’. Car break ins. You couldn’t park in that multi deck car park without your car being broken into. I used to sit in the park by the Police boys club was full of people picking up drugs. Hugh Street just outside China town was pretty shocking too. This is like a trip down memory lane for me.

[@maktakkk]

Grew up in & around the area, went to school with Tony Houng.. Cabramatta was fucking hectic in early 90’s to late 90’s.. you’d get off the train & by the time you walked over the bridge you’d have at least 20 peeps “you right bra” it was wild times & we all enjoyed ourselves to a degree.. Cabramatta would be 1 of the safest areas in Sydney now, I love going out for a feed to the restaurant behind BK

[@Chi-Power]

Nice Car and great vid boys! Been in Cabra since late 80s,Cabra was originally dominated by Europeans, mainly yugo’s and Italians. The gates were open for refugees/immigration by Mr Goth Whitlam in the late 70s and Cabra become flooded by Vietnamese/chinese, and some Cambodians as well. They worked hard, set up a lot businesses and trading shops, restaurants etc. Unfortunately a lot of racism during that period and society at the time did not really welcome asians to Cabra, But they were resilient, persistent and committed to having a better life in Australia, and battled on. The drugs and gangs were an image and life choice to get in on the money protect , defend and fit into society. As bad as it sounds the younger generation can thank the gangs, crime sweat blood and tears of the good and the bad, that is today’s Cabramatta. NOTE: majority of law enforcement during that period were corrupt, Cabra turned the page in early 2000s when they built the new cop shop which came with a new commissioner.

[@paulsz6194]

I think the Cops were Apathetic too….they only did something and put " put runs on the board " when they got unwanted scrutiny and media attention.

[@Antonelo84]

I remember being 13 with my dad shopping in Cabra and it was crazy, walking through the car park my dad even got offered gear twice by guys that looked no older than me. You’d go to the station and people would ask if you want to get on. A memory I have is a woman around her 50’s being revived by paramedics on John Street. A girl around 15 really strung out making advances to different blokes and a bloke being chased by about 7 other blokes. Unfortunately I got into the hammer and scored lots of times there for many years, then it moved to surrounding areas. Nearly 15 years of being on the gear but now I’m clean. Some friends still get on but tell me the quality isn’t the same anymore. I still go to Cabra every now and then but just for a feed now. Thank God that those days are behind me.

Cabramatta was a cheap place to live on the railway line and the first Vietnamese refugees were settled there by the authorities in the late-70s. Fairfield Council was given a lot of oney to help resettle the; they did the same recently with Syrian refugees. The place became known as Vietnamatta and by the mid-80s it was pretty much all SE Asian ethnicities. The gangs and crime came with the decent refugees and gave the place a bad but deserved reputation. In the 80s I was a Military Policeman in the area and we bailed out drunken diggers trapped by Viet gangs in pubs more than once. The best food is not there but nearby in Canley Vale where you can actually find a park most times.
