At the 2011 census, Montville and the surrounding area had a population of 886.[1] HistoryAboriginal cultureThe original inhabitants of Montville were the Kabi tribe. Early settlementThe first white settlers arrived in the area in 1887 and the town, originally Razorback,[2] was later named at a community meeting where it was voted on. The name was recommended by Henry Smith (who bought a selection of land there in 1893) after a suggestion by his mother, as it reminded her of their early years in Montville, USA.[3] From about 1900 the town became a popular mountain resort.[4] Montville was the setting for Eleanor Dark's 1959 novel Lantana Lane.[4] Montville Post Office opened by February 1910 (a receiving office had been open from 1897).[5] Montville was predominantly a logging then farming community (dairy, citrus, avocados, pineapples and macadamia nuts) until a tourism boom which commenced during the 1970s, taking advantage of the scenic views of the Sunshine Coast and the nearby rainforest walks. Heritage listingsMontville has a number of heritage-listed sites, including:
