The Rise and Rise of Armstrong Creek

Armstrong Creek has established itself as one of the largest growth areas in the country and shows no signs of slowing down.

In light of the substantial population growth Victoria has experienced in the last ten years, Armstrong Creek has become the epicentre of expansion in the Greater Geelong area. With the population set to rise to over 55,000 people, the access to infrastructure and amenities to sustain such population growth has been paramount to the area’s development. We have included a snapshot of what the Armstrong Creek area has to offer and better yet, what is still to come.

Current Infrastructure & Amenities

• • Armstrong Creek already boasts a broad range of accessible leisure, retail and education options right on your doorstep. The Village shopping precinct offers a Woolworths, McDonalds, 7-11, a specialised medical practice, a dental practice, a well-appointed gym and ambient café options such as Sullie’s Café and Warralily Cockatoo.
• • Armstrong Creek School opened its doors to primary students in the first term of this year and will welcome secondary students shortly. Early education is also well represented with Eclipse Early Education Group a mere 2-minute drive from the Anchoridge community.
• • Town & Country Pizza and Pasta, Peppered Goat Café and The Slippery Mackerel are just some of the dining options available to Armstrong Creek locals with more establishments on the horizon.
• • Staying active is important and the Armstrong Creek community provides plenty of options to stay fit and healthy for all age groups. Walking tracks, lush green parks, sporting precincts and adventure playgrounds ensure that the whole family can get outdoors this spring and summer.

What is Still to Come

• What is currently offered in the Armstrong Creek community is only a sample size of what is eventually to come. The value of properties in the region has increased steadily with the introduction of new infrastructure and is expected to continue to do so in the future with the introduction of:

• • The proposed Kingswim Centre.
• • Increased early childhood, primary and secondary education options through the region.
• • Community complexes and future commercial developments to complement existing infrastructure.
