Irymple Mildura Surrounds

Irymple and Mildura Surrounds are two different types of landscapes located about 86km apart. Irymple is more developed, with far more street intersections and larger schools, such as an average size of 342 students compared to just 67 in Mildura Surrounds. It is also a more affluent area, where the typical weekly household income is $1,716, which is well higher than the $1,239 seen in Mildura Surrounds. In contrast, Mildura Surrounds is much more rural, with agriculture and forestry making up 40.2% of local jobs and a much higher share of homes owned outright at 49.9%.
