Balwyn is consistently ranked as one of Melbourne’s most desirable suburbs and The Age even called it ‘Melbourne’s most loved’. It’s not hard to see why – Balwyn has everything you’d want from a suburb. Sitting within the City of Boroondara, it’s a leafy, quiet area with family homes on large blocks – but just a 30 minute tram ride from Melbourne CBD.
Balwyn has a highly stable population of around 21,000, which is neither significantly growing nor declining. It’s an older, and affluent suburb – the median age is 43, compared to 37 in Greater Melbourne and average mortgage and rental payments are higher than average too. People here are well educated, with 49% having a tertiary education (compared to 33% for Melbourne) and the largest employment sector after health and social assistance is professional, technical and scientific.
That makes it a great place to do business and the natural home of a Fresh Networking hub.
