About Berwick
Berwick is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria,
Australia, 41 kilometres (25 mi) south-east of
Melbourne's central business district. Its local
government area is the City of Casey. At the 2011
Census, Berwick had a population of 44,779.
Late in the 20th century Melbourne sprawled
eastward to Berwick. The surrounding rural land
was subdivided becoming a popular destination for
first home buyers with the population exploding
with new housing developments from the 1990s to
the 2000s. Some of the character of the original
Berwick township has remained.
