Kawarren Yeodene

Kawarren and Yeodene are two small, rural areas in Victoria.

There are also clear differences in family life and income; Yeodene has a higher typical weekly household income of $1,463 and a much larger share of people caring for children unpaid (32.2% compared to 16.3% in Kawarren). In contrast, Kawarren has a well higher share of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents (7.4% versus 0.0%) and far more volunteers (33.1% compared to 21.1%).

Both areas are very similar in their housing and basic layout, with 100% of homes being separate houses and no residents using public transport to commute. This shared rural character is reflected in the fact that neither area has a single public transport stop.
