Vermont Vermont South

Vermont South and Vermont are neighbouring areas in Melbourne's east with similar populations. Vermont South is an older area, with a typical resident aged 46 compared to 40 in Vermont. It has a much higher share of people aged 65 and over (26.9% versus 18.3%) and more people born overseas (46.2% compared to 37.8%). In contrast, Vermont is more family-oriented, with a higher share of children under 15 (20.6% versus 14.8%) and more adults working or looking for work (63.1% compared to 56.0%).

Since 2011, both areas have tracked closely in several key ways, maintaining very similar levels of typical household income and educational qualifications. They both have a high proportion of residents born overseas and people who use a language other than English at home, both far above the national figure. While Vermont is more walkable, with nearly all homes within a 15-minute walk of a school, Vermont South provides much better access to public transport with 1,791 weekly departures per 1,000 people.
