The Western Metropolitan Region takes in a swathe of Melbourne suburbs west and north-west of the city centre, extending from Footscray and Williamstown in the inner city area out as far as Werribee in the south-west and Sunbury in the north-west. Although there are some middle-class pockets, this is overwhelmingly a working-class area. It is also highly multi-cultural. Since World War II it has been settled by successive waves of immigrants, first from eastern and southern Europe, then from Asia (particularly from Vietnam), and more recently from India and Africa. Not surprisingly, this Region is Labor's heartland, and Labor holds all eleven lower-house seats in the region.
