Ballan is a small country town with a population of around 3,000 people, located approximately 70 km's West of Melbourne along the Western Highway, It is the next town after passing Bacchus Marsh on the way to Ballarat, It is a hidden beautiful, small country town that has all the major services that are needed for a young growing family to settle, grow and live together, The town has Childcare facilities, A Primary School, Hospital, Police, Fire and Ambulance Station, It has a small but growing population because of its close proximity to other major regional towns like Geelong 50 km's away, Ballarat 35 km's away and Bendigo 60 km's away. it is geographically centrally located making it a very attractive regional town and it is only 70 km's from Melbourne which has trains every 1/2 hour to the City .There are also plenty of recreational facilities like a Golf course next to the town, local Fishing reservoirs, Lawn bowls,Tennis Courts, Horse riding nearby and a Gym in the town. I would highly recommend this town to all those that are wanting to find a relaxed country town with all services nearby.Check it out you won't be disappointed.
