Coojar Konongwootong

Konongwootong and Coojar are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. Coojar has a much more highly qualified workforce, with 32.4% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 14.5% in Konongwootong. This is consistent with higher earnings in Coojar, where the typical weekly household income is $2,749, well above the $1,875 seen in Konongwootong.
