Numurkah Katandra West

Numurkah and Katandra West (L) are two nearby Victorian areas with very different profiles. Numurkah is a more established hub where 29.9% of residents are aged 65 and over, compared to 14.1% in Katandra West (L). It is also much more walkable, with 81.2% of homes in a 15-minute-city walkshed, while Katandra West (L) is car-dependent. In contrast, Katandra West (L) has a higher share of people in de facto relationships (24.5% versus 11.0% in Numurkah) and more high-earners, with 20.0% of households making $3,000 or more a week compared to 7.9% in Numurkah.

The gap in the number of seniors has widened since 2011, with Numurkah becoming increasingly older than its neighbour. Despite this, the two areas are effectively alike in some ways, such as the typical weekly rent of around $210 to $220 and similar rates of people working from home. Both areas also have very low shares of residents who speak little or no English.
