Campaspe Macedon Ranges

Campaspe and Macedon Ranges are both regional Victorian areas, but they differ sharply in wealth and education. Macedon Ranges has a much higher share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher (26.7% compared to 11.8% in Campaspe) and a far higher typical weekly household income, which is $2,059 compared to $1,264 in Campaspe. This difference is also seen in the workforce, with 27.0% of people in Macedon Ranges working from home, compared to 11.5% in Campaspe.

These financial and educational gaps have widened since 2011, particularly for typical incomes and university qualifications. Despite this, the two areas share several social traits, such as similar rates of unemployment and almost identical shares of people who served in the Defence Force. While Macedon Ranges is closer to the city and sees much more rain, Campaspe has more homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services.
