Koondrook Westby

Koondrook and Westby are nearby Victorian areas with very different profiles. Koondrook is a larger town with an older population, where the typical resident is 54 and 31.7% are seniors. In contrast, Westby is sparsely populated and much younger, with a typical age of 35 and a far higher share of children (29.6%). This difference is reflected in the home life; Westby has more people per home (3.6 compared to 2.2 in Koondrook) and a much higher typical weekly household income of $1,625, while Koondrook's is $973.

Both areas sit near the national figure for one-parent families, though this group is far more common in Koondrook. This contrast extends to daily life: Koondrook is somewhat walkable with a variety of amenities and public transport, while Westby is car-dependent. They share a similar lack of linguistic diversity, with very few residents using a language other than English at home.
