About West Melbourne · City guideBrevard County guide →
West Melbourne became a city in 1959, partly to avoid being annexed by Melbourne and to avoid property taxes. It has grown from about 3,000 residents in 1970 to more than 25,000 at the 2020 Census. City life centers on the Minton Road area, home to City Hall, the Veterans Memorial Complex and Sandhill Crane Park, where the city holds its Heritage Day festival.
