Wealthiest suburbs in Melbourne

Median household income from the census. No estimates, no agent opinions.

How this is ranked. Median weekly household income from the census, as a percentile. This is a factual ranking, not a recommendation — high income does not make a suburb a good place for you to live, and several of our other lists disagree with this one on purpose. 216 of 216 Melbourne suburbs had enough data to be ranked. Updated August 2026.
