About Hamilton
Hamilton is a prosperous regional city in Victoria's Western District, 290 kilometres west of Melbourne. With around 9,000 residents, it serves as the commercial hub for one of Australia's premier wool-growing regions. The Hamilton Art Gallery houses an exceptional collection.
Wealth from wool has built a city with unexpected amenities—the art gallery is genuinely significant, heritage architecture is well-preserved, and the hospitality scene punches above its weight. Hamilton attracts rural professionals, retirees, and those seeking an affordable regional lifestyle in a prosperous country town.
Hamilton falls under postcode 3300 and is governed by Southern Grampians Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Lowan (Western Victoria) electorate.
