Piangil Wood Wood

Piangil and Wood Wood are two nearby Victorian areas with very different profiles. Piangil has a larger workforce, with 72.2% of people employed full-time, and a higher proportion of separate houses (100%). In contrast, Wood Wood has a much higher share of people using a language other than English at home (24.2% compared to 13.5% in Piangil) and more one-parent families, at 24.6% compared to 12.3% in Piangil. There are also sharp contrasts among First Nations residents; the typical age is far older in Wood Wood (33 years) than in Piangil (15 years), and typical household income for First Nations families is far higher in Wood Wood ($1,999 versus $1,125).

Both areas share several common traits, including having 2.3 people per home and almost no one commuting by public transport. These similarities extend to the local landscape, where the terrain slope and the share of people who have served in the Defence Force are nearly identical. While they share these basics, the gap in typical personal income remains high, with Piangil's typical weekly income of $776 being well higher than the $545 seen in Wood Wood.
