Gellibrand Maribyrnong

Gellibrand and Maribyrnong are two nearby Victorian areas with very different housing and population profiles. Gellibrand is much younger and more diverse, with 41.4% of people born overseas and 40.6% using another language at home. It is also dominated by larger family homes, as 82.3% of dwellings have three or more bedrooms and 77.5% are separate houses. In contrast, Maribyrnong is more compact and older, with 55.4% of homes being separate houses and a higher share of flats and apartments.

Daily life in both places shares several similarities, including very similar typical weekly incomes and a nearly identical proportion of adults with a bachelor degree or higher. While both are rated as very walkable, Maribyrnong has more frequent public transport and better access to health services and groceries within a 15-minute walk. Over time, some of these gaps have shifted; for example, the difference in the share of overseas-born residents has flipped since 2011, and the gap in separate house ownership has narrowed significantly.
