Moorabool Wyndham

Wyndham and Moorabool are two Victorian areas with very different profiles. Wyndham is a large, fast-growing hub where 48.0% of people were born overseas and 49.8% use a language other than English at home. It has a more highly qualified workforce, with 32.4% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher. In contrast, Moorabool is more traditional, with far more people reporting no religion (45.9%) and a higher share of homes owned outright (32.1%).

Typical weekly family incomes are almost identical in both places, sitting at around $2,129. While they share similar income levels, the gaps between them in other areas are often widening. Since 2011, the difference in the share of people born overseas and those using other languages at home has grown. Wyndham also remains much more connected, with far more public transport departures and a shorter walk to the nearest stop than Moorabool.
