Bellarine vs Point Wilson

Bellarine and Point Wilson are two nearby Victorian areas with very different levels of activity. Bellarine has a population of 169 people and offers more infrastructure, with four public transport routes and six stops, while Point Wilson is largely non-residential with no residents. Access to basics differs sharply; 59.2% of homes in Bellarine are within a 10-minute walk of public transport, whereas 30.8% of homes in Point Wilson are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and parks.

Both areas are car-dependent and have no homes within a 15-minute walk of a school or health services. This shared reliance on vehicles is consistent across the region, as neither area has a 15-minute-city walkshed. While they are both car-dependent, Bellarine's drive time to the city is far higher at 72 minutes, compared to 35 minutes for Point Wilson.
