Suburb profile
Edi is a welcoming smaller community in Wangaratta, with a settled community character. Set in the wider countryside, it offers distance from the capital and a strong sense of place. A mature community gives the area a calm, settled social fabric, with families and grandchildren still a visible part of community life.

The streetscape feels settled and established, with older homes giving the area a familiar, lived-in look.
