Gobur Gooram

Gooram and Gobur are two sparsely populated areas in Victoria. They differ most in education and income; in Gooram, 53.8% of residents finished Year 12 and 30.5% of households earn $3,000 or more a week, while in Gobur, only 32.6% finished Year 12 and 13.9% of households earn $3,000 or more weekly. Gooram also has a higher share of people born overseas (14.2%) compared to Gobur (5.9%). In contrast, Gobur has a far higher share of people with no religion (53.9% compared to 39.0%) and more large homes, with 83.3% having three or more bedrooms compared to 69.5% in Gooram.

Everyday life is very similar in both places, as both are entirely made up of separate houses where every home has a motor vehicle. They both have no public transport and no schools within a short walk. This shared rural character is seen in their typical household incomes, which are almost identical at around $1,200 to $1,300 a week. However, some gaps are widening, such as the difference in the number of people who moved in the last five years, which is far higher in Gobur (30.2%) than in Gooram (16.7%).
