Cudgewa Lucyvale

Cudgewa and Lucyvale are two small Victorian areas with very different profiles. Cudgewa has a much older population, with a typical resident aged 54 and 24% of people aged 65 or over. In contrast, Lucyvale is far more family-oriented; children under 15 make up 28% of its people, compared to just 9.1% in Cudgewa. Lucyvale also has a much higher proportion of people born overseas (24% compared to 3.5%) and a higher share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher (19% compared to 11.6%).

Both areas are very remote, as no homes in either place are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, health services, or a school. However, the gap in their accessibility is widening, with Cudgewa now far higher in public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people. While both areas have a high rate of volunteering, this is especially true in Lucyvale, where over half the population volunteers.
