Overview

Rowville sits 27 km south‑east of Melbourne’s CBD within the City of Knox and recorded a population of 33,571 at the 2021 census, making it one of the largest southeast suburbs. The suburb is anchored by the Stud Park Shopping Centre – the biggest local retail hub with Coles, Woolworths, Kmart and over 60 specialty stores – and is serviced regularly by bus routes. Culture and community thrive around the Rowville Community Centre, home to the Clock‑Tower Library and the annual Stringybark Festival, one of Australia’s longest‑running sustainability events, drawing more than 25,000 visitors each October.

A varied housing mix reflects rapid growth in the 1980s‑90s and newer estates such as Sovereign Crest and Timbertop, complemented by three golf courses and numerous sports clubs. Families benefit from Rowville Secondary College’s dual campuses and four public primary schools, while green spaces like Heany Park and Hill Lake provide ample recreation alongside active community groups such as the 1st Rowville Scout Group.
