Horsham Natimuk

Horsham and Natimuk (L) are two nearby Victorian areas with very different profiles. Residents are far older in Natimuk (L), where the typical age is 55 compared to 40 in Horsham. This older population in Natimuk (L) is consistent with a higher share of seniors (29.5% versus 22.1%) and more homes owned outright (54.1% versus 36.6%). In contrast, Horsham is more geared toward families, with far more children under 15 (18.5% versus 8.8%) and a higher share of people caring for children unpaid (26.9% versus 16.4%). Natimuk (L) is also more walkable, with 100% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and health services, while Horsham's figures are 50.1% and 36.8% respectively.

Since 2011, many of the gaps between these two places have widened. The age difference has grown from 3 to 15 years, and the gap in volunteering and home ownership has also increased. Despite these shifting trends, the two areas remain very similar in some ways. They share almost identical typical weekly personal incomes, around $740 to $760, and both have about the same proportion of adults working or looking for work.
