Addington Ercildoune

Ercildoune and Addington are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. Ercildoune is notably younger, with a typical resident aged 37 compared to 56 in Addington. The two areas differ sharply in income and education; typical weekly household income is far higher in Ercildoune at $1,937, while Addington's is $1,042. This is consistent with Ercildoune's higher rates of university degrees (17.4%) and Year 12 completion (44.4%), both of which are far higher than in Addington.

These two neighbours share many basic characteristics, including the fact that every home is a separate house and no one uses public transport to commute. Both areas also have a very low share of residents who speak a language other than English. However, the two places continue to diverge in health and age, with Addington seeing a much higher share of people aged 65 and over (35.4%) and a higher rate of long-term health conditions.
