Hazelwood South Jeeralang

Hazelwood South and Jeeralang are neighbouring rural areas with very different demographics. Jeeralang is far older, with a typical resident aged 55 compared to 42 in Hazelwood South. This age gap is reflected in the higher share of people aged 65 and over in Jeeralang (31.6% versus 20.8%) and a much higher rate of people providing unpaid care (32.3% versus 15.6%). In contrast, Hazelwood South is more family-oriented, with a higher share of children under 15 (18.7% versus 13.2%) and more large homes, as 97% of its houses have three or more bedrooms.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining entirely dependent on cars with no public transport or walkable amenities. They share a nearly identical housing style, with every home being a separate detached house. They also both have a similar share of people with no religion and an identical lack of rental properties. While Jeeralang has a higher share of adults with a bachelor degree (27.7% versus 16.5%), both areas sit well below the national figure for Year 12 completions.
