Guide to Melbourne

Federation Square, Melbourne

Melbourne's popular meeting place - Federation Square

Around five million people live in Victoria and about 30 percent live outside the state’s capital, Melbourne.
Victoria is not only a great place to work, but a great place to live. The state’s geography is diverse, ranging from stunning beaches to sweeping rural landscapes, alpine regions and untouched native forests.

You can explore Melbourne and Regional Victoria through an interactive guide on the Living in Victoria website. The guide provides a wealth of useful information, including:

  • demographic and housing information for major regional towns and each of Melbourne’s 31 local government areas;
  • major industries and employers in each region and town, and
  • information on healthcare, education and transport for each town or local area.


To find out where to go for rest or recreation, see Tourism Victoria’s guide to the state’s eleven regions.
