Plenty is a town in Victoria, Australia, 20 km north-east of Melbourne's Central Business District. Its local government area is the Shire of Nillumbik. At the 2011 Census, Plenty had a population of 2,093. Plenty is located within Greater Melbourne, beyond the Melbourne metropolitan area Urban Growth Boundary.〔(Urban Growth Boundary map )〕 It is a semi-rural area consisting mostly of large lots, with many being several acres in size. However, increasing urbanisation is evident near the border with the suburb of Greensborough. New housing estates are being established with the population in the area set to increase, however large areas of Plenty are still relatively untouched with development limited due to being in the green wedge. ==History== Plenty Post Office opened on 3 August 1923 and closed in 1979. An earlier office opened in 1853 and was replaced by Whittlesea in 1864. Plenty Primary School on Howell Road was closed in the 1990s under the Kennett Government. Plenty Cricket Club was formed in 1946 and continues to play today.〔http://www.nillumbik.org/wiki/Plenty_Cricket_Club〕 The Plenty Historical Society was formed in 2001.〔http://www.nillumbik.org/wiki/Plenty_Historical_Society〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Plenty, Victoria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
