Churchill Hazelwood

Churchill (Vic.) and Hazelwood are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Churchill (Vic.) is a larger, more active hub with a typical resident aged 38, whereas Hazelwood is sparsely populated and much older, with a typical age of 51. Life in Hazelwood is wealthier, with typical weekly family incomes of $2,156 compared to $1,347 in Churchill (Vic.). This is reflected in home ownership; 55.6% of Hazelwood homes are owned outright, while only 37.8% are in Churchill (Vic.), where renting is far more common at 29.5%.

Both areas are about 101 minutes from the city, a similarity that sits alongside a shared lack of public transport use. However, the two differ greatly in how people get around. Churchill (Vic.) is somewhat walkable with a variety of nearby schools, parks and shops, while Hazelwood is car-dependent and lacks most of these amenities within walking distance. This gap is mirrored in the workforce, as people in Hazelwood are far more likely to work from home.
