The Australian federal electorate of Menzies is located in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria, and is named after Sir Robert Menzies, Australia's longest-serving Prime Minister. Established in 1984, the electorate covers areas such as Doncaster, Templestowe, and Warrandyte, known for their leafy residential suburbs and affluent communities. Menzies is traditionally a safe Liberal seat, reflecting its demographic of middle-to-upper-income families. Key issues in the electorate often include infrastructure, local services, and environmental conservation, particularly given its proximity to the Yarra River and surrounding parklands. The electorate is also characterised by its multicultural population and strong emphasis on education, with numerous schools and educational institutions in the area.
