Dooen Horsham

Horsham and Dooen are neighbouring areas in Victoria with very different living patterns. Horsham is a larger hub where 34.8% of people live alone and 29.8% of households rent. In contrast, Dooen is much more residential and stable, with 47.2% of homes owned outright and a far higher rate of volunteering at 31.7%. Housing also differs, as Dooen has a much higher share of large homes, with 95.5% having three or more bedrooms compared to 78.3% in Horsham.

While Horsham is somewhat walkable and Dooen is car-dependent, the two areas have remained very similar in other ways. They share the same school advantage scores and almost identical rates of people providing unpaid care. However, the gap in mobility is stark, as 96.4% of Horsham homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport, while only 16.6% of homes in Dooen have the same access.
