Baromi Boolarra South

Baromi and Boolarra South are neighbouring Victorian areas with very similar total populations, but they differ sharply in age and income. Baromi is a younger community where the typical resident is 37 and children under 15 make up 29.5% of the population. Typical weekly family incomes there are far higher at $2,143. In contrast, Boolarra South is far older, with a typical age of 53 and 24.5% of people aged 65 and over. Typical weekly incomes in Boolarra South are much lower at $1,297.

These two areas share a very similar household size and both have no residents who use public transport to commute. While they are similar in these ways, they offer different levels of convenience; Baromi is mostly car-dependent and is far more walkable than Boolarra South, which is strictly car-dependent. This is reflected in the fact that nearly half of Baromi homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries or parks, while no homes in Boolarra South have that access.
