Overview

Brooklyn is a residential locality just 3 kilometres south of Burnie’s town centre, set between Alexander Creek to the west and Romaine Creek to the east and north. The suburb originated from the 60‑acre Brooklyn Estate, which was subdivided into housing lots in the early 1940s, giving the area a mix of mid‑century homes that were described at the time as a “flourishing suburb”. Its proximity to the Romaine Reservoir, South Burnie Beach and a network of creeks provides easy access to waterfront recreation and natural scenery, supporting a relaxed, family‑friendly lifestyle.

Transport links are straightforward: Route B18 (Mount Street) runs along the western fringe, while Roslyn Avenue and Brooklyn Road connect the suburb from the south and north respectively. Residents benefit from nearby educational and community facilities, including Parklands High School, the Burnie Child and Family Centre in the former Acton Primary School, and a range of primary schools within a kilometre. Heritage sites such as the nearby APPM Administration Buildings and Oakleigh Park add a touch of local character to everyday life.
