Dartmouth Nariel Valley

Dartmouth and Nariel Valley are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. Dartmouth has a much older population, with a typical age of 60 compared to 52 in Nariel Valley. Financial outcomes differ sharply; the typical weekly household income in Nariel Valley is $1,562, while in Dartmouth it is far lower at $662. Nariel Valley also has a higher share of people who finished Year 12 (46.6% compared to 19.6% in Dartmouth) and a much higher proportion of adults working or looking for work (69.2% compared to 25.2%).

This shared isolation is mirrored in their housing, with neither area having any homes that can be reached without a motor vehicle. While they share these physical constraints, the gap in employment is stark, with Nariel Valley having far more people working from home (27.8%) than Dartmouth (0.0%).
