About Doveton (VIC 3177)

Doveton originally part of the Eumemmerring pastoral run in the 1830s, Doveton gained its name from prominent early settler Captain John Doveton, who remained until around 1903. Named around 1954, When transformed into a public housing estate to house the post-war population increase caused by a surge in displaced people from war torn countries and an industrial boom in Dandenong. Doveton Post Office opened on 1 December 1956 as the suburb was developing and booming. An example is that when it was first opened several of the state schools and colleges had increasing enrolments and had booming popularity and growth, and this is the reason why the post office was opened - the population continued to increase. Sometime in 1967 the first library was opened by residents, during a period when Doveton lacked any community services or facilities. Around this time Doveton gained its first council representation. Doveton initially housed factory workers in various industries including the automotive industry. Unemployment in the area rose after some of these factories closed following wage explosions, tariff cuts and cheaper imports from Asia. Although it contains some of Melbourne's cheapest housing, first homebuyers typically skipped Doveton for newer suburbs further out, such as Narre Warren, Cranbourne and Berwick. However, Doveton is closer to the facilities of Dandenong and is expected to benefit from the redevelopment of Dandenong City Centre. Doveton has been studied by sociology academics since the 1960s. The results of the study were published in the book 'An Australian Newtown' written by Lois Bryson and Faith Thompson in 1972. While Doveton was not specifically mentioned it is clear from the map of the area and the dates published that it is the sole subject of this book.
