Scotsman James Robertson named his property Aberfeldie, located on the corner of Aberfeldie Street and Park Crescent, after the town Aberfeldy in Scotland. When the property was sold in 1888 it became the name of the suburb. The Polish Catholic church on the corner of Alma Street and Aberfeldie Street was consecrated in 1973 by Cardinal Karol Wojtyla, who later became Pope John Paul II. Today

The area has tended to attract families, with its abundance of parks, sporting facilities, and the Maribyrnong River. There is a range of detached housing from inter-war California bungalows to post-war dwellings. Sport

Community groups have been active in the suburb since the start of the 20th century. Aberfeldie Bowls Club was established on 16 March 1910. In 1928 the Aberfeldie Progress Association joined with 6 other progress associations to form the Northern Districts Progress Cricket Association. In 1944 the Aberfeldie Community Centre was established to promote football, cricket, tennis, lawn bowls, gymnastics, swimming and basketball, as well as other social and cultural events. This led to the formation of the Aberfeldie Sports Club (formed in 1974; incorporated in 1987) a family oriented club that began as a community-based sporting organisation in 1948 and today is the home of local grass-roots Australian Rules Football and cricket. It first entered a football team in the 1951 season. Aberfeldie Football Club is now part of the Essendon District Football League and the Aberfeldie Cricket Club is under the jurisdiction of the Victorian Turf Cricket Association and the North West Cricket Association. The club's large junior base helps solidify them as one of the area's strongest local clubs. Educational facilities
