For where you are your own backyard (depending on local street lighting) would be best.
I'm in Mill Park and to see how built up it has become from here out to Whittlesea over the past 20 years is enough to make you weep (astronomically speaking!).
If you are imaging using NB filters this won't be much of an issue - for example see some of Andy Campbell's work (from memory he's over Balwyn way).
For long OSC exposure imaging (> 3.0 minutes) you will need to get out of 'Dodge'. For me this is either in Kinglake, Mansfield or the Snake Valley Astro Camps.
The other possibility is to become an ASV member and make use of their Dark Sky Site at Heatchote.
