About Mambourin

Mambourin is a newly established growth suburb located approximately 38 kilometres south-west of Melbourne's CBD within the City of Wyndham local government area. Recorded at just 315 residents in the 2021 Census, the suburb is in the early stages of a major residential expansion driven by two large master-planned communities — Country Garden Australia's Windermere project (4,700 lots) and Frasers Property's Mambourin project (1,200 lots) — which together are expected to house more than 18,000 residents upon completion. The area forms part of Victoria's western growth corridor, one of Melbourne's fastest-developing outer fringe regions.

As a suburb still taking shape, Mambourin currently offers a quiet semi-rural atmosphere with newly built homes and developing streetscapes. Future planned amenities include local schools, retail precincts, parks, and community facilities that will be delivered progressively as the population grows. The suburb's proximity to the Princes Freeway and the Werribee township provides access to established services, shopping, and the Werribee Train Station for rail connections into Melbourne's CBD. Mambourin appeals strongly to first-home buyers and young families seeking affordable new housing in a community being built from the ground up.

Mambourin falls under postcode 3024 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Werribee (Western Metropolitan) electorate.
