Casey Hotham

Hotham and Casey are two very different Victorian areas. Hotham is a very walkable place where 52.9% of people were born overseas, and 56.7% use another language at home. In contrast, Casey is much more car-dependent, with only 16.8% of residents born overseas and 7.9% using a language other than English. Living arrangements also differ sharply; Hotham has far more renters (33.6%) and apartments, while Casey has far more separate houses (93.8%) and homes with three or more bedrooms (84.7%).

Everyday life in both places shares some similarities, as the typical monthly mortgage payment is nearly the same and the number of people per home is identical at 2.7. However, these areas have drifted apart over time. The gap in overseas births has widened since 2011, and the difference in the number of people who speak little or no English has grown since 2016. While Hotham is now the younger of the two, the typical resident in Casey is 40, which is a little older than the national figure.
