Rawson Tyers

Rawson (L) and Tyers (L) are two small, sparsely populated areas in Victoria. There are stark differences in their economic profiles; typical weekly household income in Tyers (L) is $1,521, which is far higher than the $822 seen in Rawson (L). Tyers (L) also has a more qualified workforce, with 43% of residents completing Year 12 compared to 32.9% in Rawson (L). While Rawson (L) has better access to groceries and parks, Tyers (L) is much more likely to have homes within a short walk of public transport.

Since 2011, the two areas have moved in different directions across several measures. The gap in Year 12 completion has narrowed, but the difference in typical household income has widened. Both areas are quite similar in other ways, such as the share of people born overseas and the fact that almost no one uses a language other than English at home. Both also have high rates of outright home ownership, sitting around 47% to 48%.
