Leopold Clifton Springs

Clifton Springs and Leopold are two nearby Victorian areas with a strong preference for separate houses. Clifton Springs is a more established and older place, where the typical resident is 45 and 25.2% of the population are seniors. It has a much larger school presence, with five schools and 3,877 enrolments, compared to just one school and 873 enrolments in Leopold. A standout feature of Clifton Springs is its mobility; 46.3% of residents moved there in the last five years, which is far higher than the 34.3% in Leopold.

The two areas have tracked differently since 2011, most notably in their movement patterns as the gap in new arrivals has flipped. While they differ on access to services—Leopold has far more public transport routes and better walkability to health services and groceries—they are very similar in other ways. Both have nearly identical proportions of First Nations people and children under 15, and typical weekly incomes are nearly the same, sitting around $707 to $757.
