As long as you keep away from anywhere that looks dodgy, you'll be fine. Just avoid Vietnamese gangs, they're the main problem here at the moment.
It'll certainly be very good during the Commonwealth Games next month, everyone will be too busy watching sport.

Melbourne is a safe city. Crime exists in Australia & Melbourne (of course). There is organised crime that onyl generally affects those directly involved. The police force in Australia and Melbourne is generally well staffed and trained.

Very safe though you need to use 'common sense'. Downtown gets a bit deserted at night. Safer than Sydney
