Beulah Kenmare

Beulah (Vic.) and Kenmare (Vic.) are two nearby rural areas with very different profiles. Beulah (Vic.) is a small town with 312 people and far better access to services; about 70% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of health services and 64% are near a school. In contrast, Kenmare (Vic.) is sparsely populated with only 3 residents. This small population is much older, with a typical age of 81, and earns a far higher typical weekly household income of $1,999 compared to $1,062 in Beulah (Vic.).

Both areas are effectively identical in that no one lives within a 15-minute walk of groceries. This lack of nearby food shopping is common to both, and it sits near the national figure for rural areas. While Beulah (Vic.) is somewhat walkable and has four public transport stops, Kenmare (Vic.) is car-dependent and has none.
