About Werribee
Werribee is a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria,
Australia, 32 km south-west of Melbourne's
Central Business District. The local government
area for Werribee is the City of Wyndham. At the
2011 Census, Werribee had a population of 37,737.
Werribee is situated on the Werribee River,
approximately halfway between Melbourne and
Geelong, on the Princes Highway.
Since the 1990s Werribee has experienced rapid
suburban growth into surrounding greenfield land,
and becoming a commuter town in the
Melbourne-Geelong growth corridor. Due to this
urban sprawl Wyndham and its suburbs have
merged into the Melbourne conurbation.
