Nathalia Numurkah

Numurkah and Nathalia are two nearby Victorian towns with a notable contrast in how easy they are to get around. Nathalia is very walkable, with nearly all homes within a 15-minute walk of parks, groceries, health services, and schools. Numurkah is somewhat walkable, but it has far fewer homes within a short walk of public transport (38.1%) compared to Nathalia (76.2%). Nathalia also has a higher share of people who have finished Year 12 (38.8%) and those who volunteer (23.4%).

These two areas have tracked in different directions since 2011, with several gaps between them widening over time.
