Campaspe Mitchell

Mitchell and Campaspe are both regional Victorian areas, but they have very different demographics. Mitchell is growing quickly, with a population that rose by 17.6% since 2021, while Campaspe's population fell by 1.6%. This growth helps explain why Mitchell is much younger, with a typical resident aged 36 compared to 47 in Campaspe. Residents in Mitchell also generally have more money, with a typical weekly household income of $1,719, which is well higher than the $1,264 typical in Campaspe.

Everyday life in both places shares several similarities, including nearly identical rates of one-parent families and people living with a mental health condition. However, the gaps between the two are often widening. The age difference has grown from 5 to 11 years since 2011, and the gap in home ownership has increased, with 41.7% of Campaspe residents owning their home outright compared to 28.6% in Mitchell.
