Overview

South Melbourne sits just 3 km south of Melbourne’s CBD in the City of Port Phillip and was home to 11,548 residents at the 2021 Census. Originally Emerald Hill, the suburb retains an extensive heritage‑listed Victorian streetscape of terraced houses and cottages, centred around the bustling Clarendon Street precinct and the South Melbourne Market, where cafés, eateries, galleries and boutique shops line cobbled laneways. Its leafy public spaces, historic Town Hall and the 1856 See Yup Chinese temple add cultural depth to everyday life.
