Sugarloaf Creek Tallarook

Tallarook and Sugarloaf Creek are nearby rural areas in Victoria with very different levels of accessibility. Tallarook is more developed for pedestrians, with about 30% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school and 32.5% near groceries, while Sugarloaf Creek has no homes within that distance of either. Tallarook also has a higher proportion of older residents (22.3%) and people with long-term health conditions (34.8%), compared to 16.1% and 19.2% in Sugarloaf Creek. In contrast, First Nations personal income is far higher in Sugarloaf Creek, where the typical amount is $2,500 compared to $450 in Tallarook.

These two areas have tracked closely together since 2011 in several ways. They share very similar typical weekly personal incomes of around $800 and almost identical shares of people born overseas at 9.4%. They are also alike in their small First Nations populations and the fact that no one in either area commutes by public transport. While Tallarook has seen more people move in over the last five years, both areas remain well below the national figure for recent arrivals.
