Laharum Mockinya

Laharum and Mockinya are two sparsely populated areas in Victoria with very different age profiles. Laharum is an older community where the typical resident is 52, and 24.1% of people are aged 65 and over. In contrast, Mockinya is much younger, with a typical age of 41 and a high share of children under 15 (26.7%). Incomes are also quite different; typical weekly family income is far higher in Mockinya at $3,749, compared to $1,949 in Laharum.

Both areas are completely car-dependent and lack local public transport or schools. These shared challenges are consistent as the gap between them in some areas has shifted over time, such as the increasing difference in the typical age of residents. While Laharum has more people born overseas (10.5%) and a higher share of those with no religion (43.2%), both areas have no Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander residents.
