Ascot East Bendigo

Ascot (Greater Bendigo - Vic.) and East Bendigo are neighbouring areas with very different household profiles. Ascot is much younger, with 24.5% of people under 15 and a typical resident aged 35, while East Bendigo's typical resident is 45. This younger population in Ascot is reflected in the high number of people caring for children unpaid (35.3%) and a housing stock dominated by large, detached family homes, with 95.1% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, East Bendigo has far more people living alone (39.9%) and a higher share of renters at 37.0%.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, maintaining a shared profile in terms of university qualifications and the number of people who volunteer. They also share a similar distance to the city and a low number of residents who speak little or no English. While they are close by, East Bendigo is far more connected for pedestrians, with many more public transport stops and a higher share of homes within a 10-minute walk of a stop.
