Settled in the early 1830s and named in 1839, Tarneit was for many years an agricultural centre of orchards and farmland. In many ways, it has long been a true gateway to the city, country and the coast.
Today it is a thriving part of the City of Wyndham, attracting increasing numbers with its mature mix of established amenities such as schools, civic services and business hubs, as well as its proximity to Melbourne.
With ongoing investment from both Government and private sectors encouraging employment and community growth, Tarneit has established itself within one of Melbourne’s fastest growing and most prosperous areas.
