The drive time to the city is well higher in Neerim North at 200 minutes, compared to 131 minutes for Toorongo.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining largely undeveloped with no public transport stops or routes. They also both have very low street connectivity, which is consistent with their rural nature. While Neerim North has a slightly higher number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, both areas sit well below the national figure for this group.
