Grahamvale Shepparton

Shepparton and Grahamvale are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Shepparton is a much larger hub where 23.4% of people use another language at home and many more residents are recent overseas arrivals. It has a younger population, with a typical age of 38, and a high share of renters at 37.4%. In contrast, Grahamvale is a smaller area where residents are far older, with a typical age of 47. It is more affluent, with a typical weekly household income of $2,092 compared to $1,285 in Shepparton, and a much higher share of homes owned outright (43.8%).

These two areas have tracked in different directions since 2011, though they share some similarities today. Both have about the same share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher, and their figures for people with no religion are nearly identical. While Shepparton is a walkable center with many public transport stops and parks, Grahamvale is almost entirely made up of separate houses and is more car-dependent. This contrast is clear in the time it takes to reach a transport stop, which is just 2 minutes in Shepparton but 27 minutes in Grahamvale.
