Overview

Croydon sits 30 km east of Melbourne’s CBD in the City of Maroondah and recorded a population of 28,608 at the 2021 census. Main Street buzzes with more than 187 traders, offering cafés, boutiques, hairdressers and other services, while the Croydon Central and Arndale Shopping Centres provide a wider retail mix and ample parking. Leisure options include the Aquahub sports hub, the seasonal Croydon Memorial outdoor pool and nearby green spaces such as Croydon Park, plus local cinemas (Croydon Cinemas, Plaza Cinemas) and the annual Maroondah Festival that draws big‑name performers.

Transport is well‑served: Croydon railway station on the Lilydale line lies in PT Zone 2, just a five‑minute walk from the shopping strip, and a major bus interchange links the suburb to Ringwood, Lilydale, Chirnside Park and beyond. Easy car access to the Melbourne CBD is provided via the M3. Since the late‑1990s the housing stock has diversified, with many former large single‑dwelling blocks redeveloped into dual‑occupancy homes, creating a blend of traditional houses and higher‑density residences.
