Wannon Wootong Vale

Wannon and Wootong Vale are both sparsely populated areas in Victoria. Wannon is much older, with a typical resident aged 45 and 25.8% of people aged 65 or over, compared to a typical age of 35 and no seniors in Wootong Vale. There are also stark differences in their workforces; Wannon has a higher share of people earning $2,000 or more a week, while Wootong Vale has a far higher share of adults working or looking for work (90.9%) and those with a bachelor degree or higher (27.3%).

Both areas are entirely car-dependent and have no public transport stops. This lack of connectivity is a shared feature of life in both places, as neither has any homes within walking distance of a school, health service, or grocery store. While they share this isolation, the two areas have diverged in other ways, with Wannon seeing a much higher number of people moving in over the last five years.
