About Williams Landing

Williams Landing is a modern master-planned suburb located 19 kilometres southwest of Melbourne's CBD in the City of Wyndham. With a population approaching 9,500 and continuing rapid growth, it's developed on the former RAAF Base Laverton airfield since 2008. The suburb is designed as a transit-oriented development, centred around Williams Landing railway station which opened in 2013. The community features diverse demographics without dominance by any single ethnicity.

The suburb offers a '20-minute neighbourhood' concept with 2,400 homes integrated with 200,000 sqm of retail and office space. Williams Landing Shopping Centre provides convenient amenities, while the planned employment hub aims to create 13,000 white-collar jobs locally. The development features four distinct residential neighbourhoods (Ashcroft, Kingwell, Elmstead, and Addison), each with premium design guidelines. Residents enjoy direct freeway access, significant conservation reserves, and proximity to Point Cook's coastal amenities.

Williams Landing falls under postcode 3027 and is governed by Wyndham Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Laverton (Western Metropolitan) electorate.
