About Noble Park

Noble Park is one of Melbourne's most genuinely diverse suburbs, a multicultural community of 32,000 in Greater Dandenong, 25 kilometres southeast of the CBD. The Pakenham and Cranbourne lines provide city access via Noble Park station, while recent streetscape upgrades have improved the Douglas Street shopping precinct. The suburb's elevation rises towards the Dandenong Ranges, offering views from higher streets.

This is authentic multicultural Melbourneβ€”Afghan, Indian, Sri Lankan, and Vietnamese communities have established genuine neighbourhoods with restaurants, grocers, and cultural institutions. Recent investment has improved public spaces and community facilities, while affordability continues attracting new migrants and working families. Noble Park appeals to those seeking diversity without pretension, who value community connections and cultural authenticity over cosmetic appeal, in one of Melbourne's most genuine melting pots.

Noble Park falls under postcode 3174 and is governed by Greater Dandenong Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Dandenong (South-Eastern Metropolitan) electorate.
