Warragul Warragul South

Warragul and Warragul South are neighbouring areas in Victoria with very different layouts. Warragul is a larger hub where 47% of people have moved in the last five years and 14.1% are recent overseas arrivals. It is described as somewhat walkable, while Warragul South is car-dependent. There are also notable gaps in wealth and health; 33.7% of Warragul South households earn $3,000 or more a week compared to 17.8% in Warragul, but Warragul has a far higher share of people with long-term health conditions (34.1% versus 23.9%).

These two areas have stayed distinct, and the gaps between them are widening in some key areas. While they share a similar terrain slope and typical rent, they have diverged in their housing and transport. In Warragul South, 100% of homes are separate houses, which is far higher than the 87.9% in Warragul.
