Moira Yarrawonga

Yarrawonga and Moira are nearby Victorian areas with very different layouts. Yarrawonga is more concentrated, with a walkability score of 3.6 (mostly car-dependent) and far more homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services. It is also older, with 33.8% of people aged 65 and over, and has seen more movement, with 40.6% of residents moving in during the last five years. Moira is much more spread out and car-dependent, with a walkability score of 1.2. It has a higher share of separate houses (98.1%) and more people working from home (18.3%).

Everyday life is similar in both places, as they share almost identical rates of home ownership and typical weekly incomes. Both areas also have similar proportions of people born overseas and those who speak a language other than English at home. Over time, some gaps have shifted; the difference in the proportion of renters has widened, while the gap in the number of people working or looking for work has narrowed since 2011.
