Glen Creek Kergunyah

Kergunyah and Glen Creek are two nearby rural areas in Victoria, but they have very different profiles. Kergunyah is an older community where 22.0% of people are aged 65 and over, and it has a higher rate of volunteering at 24.8%. Homes here are typically larger, with 94.4% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Glen Creek has a younger feel, with children under 15 making up 23.7% of the population, and a higher share of people living alone at 38.1%.

Both areas sit close to the national figure for the share of people living alone, though Glen Creek is far above the Australian average. They are also alike in that every single home is a separate detached house and no one commutes by public transport. While Kergunyah has more public transport stops and a few more walkable amenities, both areas are largely car-dependent and lack schools or health services within a 15-minute walk.
