Frankston South Moorooduc

Frankston South and Moorooduc are neighbouring areas with very different layouts. Frankston South is a larger, more urban place where 70% of homes have a 15-minute walk to local amenities and the walkability score is somewhat walkable (5.4). In contrast, Moorooduc is car-dependent (0.9) with no homes within 15 minutes of health services. There are also distinct differences in housing and people; Moorooduc has a far higher share of detached houses (98.3%) and homes owned outright (47.8%), while Frankston South has more children (19.1% compared to 13.1%) and a higher proportion of residents born overseas (21.6% versus 14.1%).

These two areas have tracked similarly in several ways, with almost identical typical weekly personal incomes and nearly the same share of people who have no religion. However, a gap is widening in how people get around, as Frankston South has far more public transport stops and departures per person than Moorooduc. This is consistent with Frankston South having a much higher number of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport (93.6% compared to 2.3%).
