"A great, friendly, safe suburb for all ages."
We have raised a large family here and have never had any problems. It is so central to everything.
On hand we have sporting clubs, a new swimming centre, great medical & dental facilities. There are also good active churches. You can walk down the main street and often get a smile from people. There is a very good library and the neighborhood is very friendly. They don't live on your doorstep but would be there to assist if needed. Shopping is already excellent and the Waurn POnds shoppping centre is supposed to be doubling in size next year. Deakin University, Marcus Oldham Agricultural College, Reformed Theological College, Christian College, Clairvaux Catholic School and a number of excellent state primary schools are all in walking distance. There is also a U3A program and good senior citizen facilities. Fortunately, there are few opportunities here for gambling and no sleazy night clubs.
Who lives here?

Getting a lot of smart chinese hitting Belmont now.... as excellent schools including the best primary and secondary school in Geelong district.
Hi Mintu. Are there many Asian people living in Belmont? Currently I live in Melbourne which is very multicultural, especially with all the universities. I would like to move to Belmont ( I lived there about 20 years ago when I went to Deakin), and it was very white Anglo Saxon at that time. I wouldn't like my wife to be stared at or made to feel unwelcome because she is Asian. Thanks for your advice, Best wishes, Ben.
