Murrawee Murraydale

Murrawee and Murraydale are two sparsely populated neighbouring areas in Victoria. There are stark differences in wealth and health between them. In Murraydale, 34.2% of households earn $3,000 or more a week, compared to just 6.8% in Murrawee. This is consistent with a higher typical weekly household income in Murraydale ($2,062) than in Murrawee ($1,562). Health also differs, with people with a mental health condition far more common in Murraydale (15.2%) than in Murrawee (2.4%). Murrawee is slightly more walkable, with 58.2% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a park, whereas only 7.4% of homes in Murraydale have that access.
