Werribee is back
Werribee has circled back to the top of the table of hottest suburbs in Victorian as homeowners flock to the growing enclave
IT isn’t that surprising that Werribee has circled back to the top of the hottest suburb table.
Sitting 32 kilometres south-west of the Melbourne CBD and part of the Department of Transport and Planning’s priority precincts linked to the Suburban Rail Loop, it is seen as a good place for first-time buyers and investors alike.
There is clearly room for more growth in the perfectly placed pocket between the Melbourne business district and Geelong that is often touted as Victoria’s fastest growing suburb.
But with the state government identifying the City Wyndham as a key area for expansion, and plans for 110,403 new homes by 2050 – increasing the housing stock to a total of 210,769 – it will need substantial investment in infrastructure to cope.
Elsewhere, Armstrong Creek has fallen off the list entirely after sitting in the second spot in June. Truganina, Sunbury, Resevoir and Hawthorn are all also missing this month.
They have been replaced by South Bank, Berwick, Preston and Point Cook. Melbourne City remains strong, month on month.
