Grampians and Warrnambool are both regional Victorian areas with older-than-average populations, but they differ sharply in their layout and climate. Warrnambool is far wetter, with an average annual rainfall of 724mm compared to 406mm in Grampians. Public transport is also far more common in Warrnambool, where there are 457.6 weekly departures per 1,000 people. In contrast, Grampians has far more schools per 1,000 children (5.68) and more residents living within a 15-minute walk of health services (44.6% compared to 29.5% in Warrnambool).

Since 2011, the two areas have tracked closer together in some areas while drifting apart in others. The gap in typical age has narrowed from five years to three, and the difference in home ownership has also shrunk.

Both areas remain similar in their share of overseas-born residents and the percentage of people using a language other than English at home.
