谢谢科普,刚才google了一下,找到了Mumbai Cook的出处,2010年的文章,这里截取一部分。
When Gordon and Julia de Silva leave their two-month-old house with their young baby in Point Cook's Alamanda Estate for the local shops, they see a melting pot of faces.
''We heard that every third or fourth home is an Indian family, out of the 1500 homes. We've seen a lot of Indians here. In fact, they all call it Mumbai Cook,'' says Ms de Silva.
Young, professional, family-oriented and educated migrants are buying into new growth-area suburbs, research shows.
Both the de Silvas have city-based jobs: Gordon is a financial planner, Juliana works for a bank.
The couple chose to buy in Point Cook because it was affordable, cosmopolitan, close to the city and had good facilities including fibre optic cable, Mr de Silva said.
A survey of about 3500 home buyers by Oliver Hume Real Estate Group shows 10 per cent of home buyers in growth-area suburbs were born in India.
Buyers with Chinese and British backgrounds were the next largest group at 3 per cent, closely followed by Sri Lankans at 2.7 per cent. Australians made up about 60 per cent of purchasers.
On the downside, according to KPMG demographer Bernard Salt, while the outer suburbs deliver affordable housing supply to owner-occupiers, they don't necessarily represent the right conditions for strong capital growth over the medium term.
But that doesn't concern Ms de Silva.
''Point Cook is one of the newest suburbs closest to the city.
''If you would like to live 19 or 20 kilometres the other side, you would have to really be a millionaire, I guess, to buy a house.
''But Point Cook is still affordable,'' she said.
