Glen Creek Mudgegonga

Mudgegonga and Glen Creek are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. Mudgegonga is much older, with a typical resident aged 56 and a far higher share of people aged 65 and over (27.7% compared to 8.5% in Glen Creek). This is consistent with a higher rate of long-term health conditions in Mudgegonga (32.1% versus 16.9%) and more people providing unpaid care. In contrast, Glen Creek is far more likely to have children under 15 (23.7% compared to 13.0% in Mudgegonga) and has a higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (23.8% versus 13.2%).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, with nearly identical rates of unemployment and a similar proportion of people moving into the area in the last five years. They are also alike in that every home is a separate house and every single home has a motor vehicle. While Mudgegonga has slightly more public transport stops and a higher typical rent of $350, both places remain largely car-dependent with no schools within 3 km.
