Gannawarra Mead

Gannawarra and Mead are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. Gannawarra is more likely to have larger homes, with 86.1% having three or more bedrooms, and a higher rate of full-time employment at 68.8%. In contrast, Mead is much older, with 23.5% of people aged 65 and over compared to 12.7% in Gannawarra. Mead also has a much higher share of homes owned outright at 48.6%, while that figure is 27.8% in Gannawarra.

Both areas have similar rates of people caring for children unpaid, which sits near the national figure. They are also very alike in that every home is a separate house and no one uses public transport to get to work. While they share these traits, the gap between them in home ownership and the number of people living alone has remained significant.
