Kyvalley Tongala

Tongala and Kyvalley are neighbouring areas in Victoria with very different living patterns. Tongala is a more accessible hub, described as somewhat walkable, where 72% of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services. It has a far higher share of one-parent families (16.3%) and people living alone (32.3%) compared to Kyvalley. In contrast, Kyvalley is car-dependent and more residential in nature; it is far more likely to have homes owned outright (48.7%) and every single home there is a separate house.

Both areas sit near the national figure for the share of people who identify as having no religion. They also share a similar typical resident age of 41 and nearly identical rates of volunteering. While they are alike in these ways, other gaps remain large, such as in education, where the share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher is well higher in Kyvalley. This contrast in living styles is also seen in transport, with Tongala having far more public transport departures and stops per 1,000 people.
