Clifton Creek Fairy Dell

Clifton Creek and Fairy Dell (East Gippsland - Vic.) are neighbouring rural areas, though Fairy Dell (East Gippsland - Vic.) is largely non-residential with no recorded population. Clifton Creek is more developed for its size, with five Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and a few homes located within a 15-minute walk of a school (12.9%) or a park (4.5%). In contrast, Fairy Dell (East Gippsland - Vic.) has no such walkable access to services, though it does have more street connectivity with one intersection per square kilometre.

Both areas are car-dependent and share a similar lack of local amenities, as no homes in either place are within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. While the two areas are almost identical in their lack of public transport, the gap in their street connectivity has widened since the last census.
