Bruthen Johnsonville

Bruthen and Johnsonville are two nearby Victorian areas with very different demographic profiles. Johnsonville is much older, with a typical resident aged 58 and 40.8% of people aged 65 and over, compared to a typical age of 43 and 17.1% seniors in Bruthen. This age gap is reflected in home ownership, with 66.7% of Johnsonville homes owned outright, which is far higher than the 40.8% in Bruthen. Bruthen is more likely to have families and children, with 18.7% of its population under 15 and a far higher share of adults caring for children unpaid (26.8% versus 13.2% in Johnsonville).

These two areas share a nearly identical lack of recent overseas arrivals and no residents who speak little or no English. They also have similar shares of people in de facto relationships and households earning $3,000 or more a week.
