The area is home to a people from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds, appealing to families, retirees, professionals and beach lovers alike. There are many reasons local make Newport home, including larger blocks of land, numerous places of worship including the Australian Islamic Centre, a love for the outdoors, or the lively Substation community arts centre with its concerts, art exhibitions and community events.

Just like the diverse population, the housing in Newport ranges from mansions to modest apartments, with the most expensive having uninterrupted views across the water. In the past Newport has been seen as the more affordable alternative to nearby Williamstown, and while a growth in popularity is reflected in the changing market, it’s not too late to take advantage of the investment potential of this bayside area.
