Warracknabeal Natimuk

Warracknabeal and Natimuk (L) are both regional Victorian towns, but they have very different social profiles. Natimuk (L) has a much more highly qualified population, with 26.9% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 9.6% in Warracknabeal. Natimuk (L) also has a far higher share of people in de facto relationships (19.8% versus 9.2% in Warracknabeal) and a much larger proportion of residents who identify as having no religion (55.3% versus 37.5%). In contrast, Warracknabeal has a higher share of children under 15, at 15.5% compared to 8.8% in Natimuk (L).

Many of these gaps have widened since 2011, particularly the difference in university qualifications and the number of people who identify as having no religion. Despite these shifting trends, the two towns remain very similar in other ways. Both are very walkable, with almost every home within a 15-minute walk of a park. They also share similar typical monthly home-loan payments, around $740 to $780, and have nearly identical proportions of people aged 65 and over.
