Areas like Melville and Greenside are traditionally late-night haunts and staying out until all hours doesn't deter locals from rising with the birds. Car traffic increases soon after dawn, and you’ll see joggers, cyclists, domestic workers and dog-walkers making their way through the suburbs in the early morning.
