Kerang Teal Point

Kerang and Teal Point are neighbours in Victoria, but they offer very different ways of living. Kerang is a larger town where the typical resident is 51 and 30.9% of people are aged 65 or over. It is a somewhat walkable area where most homes are within a short walk of schools, health services, and parks. In contrast, Teal Point is sparsely populated and car-dependent. It has a younger feel, with a typical age of 43 and a higher share of children under 15 (24.1%).

Both areas are very similar when it comes to the number of people who volunteer and those living with a mental health condition. This shared sense of community exists alongside some sharp contrasts. For example, the gap in workforce activity is wide, with adults working or looking for work far higher in Teal Point (68.2%) than in Kerang (46.9%). While Kerang has more people moving in, Teal Point has a higher share of people who speak little or no English (9.3% compared to 0.3% in Kerang).
