Ballan Ingliston

Ballan and Ingliston are neighbouring areas in Victoria with very different profiles. Ballan is a larger, somewhat walkable hub where 85% of homes have three or more bedrooms and the typical resident is 43. Ingliston is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with a much younger typical age of 36 and a higher share of children under 15 (32.3% compared to 18.6% in Ballan). There are also stark differences in wealth and health, with typical monthly home-loan payments far higher in Ingliston ($2,712) and long-term health conditions far higher in Ballan (34.9%).

Both areas are similar in the languages spoken at home and the advantage scores of their schools. However, the gap in residential mobility is widening, as 40% of Ballan residents moved in the last five years compared to 29.8% in Ingliston. While Ballan has a high level of accessibility with many homes within a 15-minute walk of shops and health services, Ingliston remains almost entirely dependent on cars for all needs.
