About
The South East
The South East region currently produces $90 billion in gross regional product with over 158,000 businesses generating 628,000 local jobs.
The region extends to Mornington Peninsula, Frankston, Dandenong, Knox, Kingston, Cardinia and Casey. Our population of 1.3million is rising, and we are one of the fastest growing regional corridors in Victoria.
The South East is also Victoria’s No. 1 tourist destination, with more visitors heading to the gorgeous Mornington Peninsula than anywhere else.
