Bass Coast South Gippsland

Bass Coast and South Gippsland are nearby Victorian regions with distinct layouts. Bass Coast is more urbanised, with far more public transport stops and 74.6% of homes within a 10-minute walk of a stop, compared to just 29.8% in South Gippsland. Residents in Bass Coast also have far better access to parks, and the area has seen much faster population growth since 2021 at 9.1%, while South Gippsland grew by 2.4%. Bass Coast is also more mobile, with 43.5% of people moving in the last five years, well higher than the 35.1% in South Gippsland.

Both areas sit well above the national figure for volunteering, which is a common thread in their community life.
