Westmeadows suburb profile

Westmeadows is a residential pocket in north-west Melbourne's City of Hume, known for quiet, tree-lined streets and a stock of mid-century brick and weatherboard bungalows alongside pockets of newer townhouses. Green corridors along the Moonee Ponds Creek provide walking and cycling routes and pleasant parkland, while a compact shopping strip and community facilities meet everyday needs. The suburb has an established, family-friendly feel with local sporting clubs and schools, and it suits people who commute or work in the north-west thanks to easy access to major roads and public transport links and nearby airport connections.
