Migration & Movement in Robinvale
How people move — recent moves within Australia and arrivals from overseas.
A massive gap separates Robinvale from the rest of the country in how people move. While far fewer residents have changed their home recently, an exceptionally high number of people have arrived from overseas. This creates a unique mix where the local population is stable but heavily influenced by new arrivals from abroad.
Moving home
People who moved in the last five years.
Only 32.2% of people moved house in the last five years, which is well below the Victorian figure of 40.0% and the national rate of 40.7%. This level of movement is much lower than most similar areas, although it has risen slightly since 2011.
Arrivals from overseas
Overseas-born residents who arrived recently.
Recent arrivals from overseas make up 34.5% of the population, a figure far above the 14.5% seen across Australia. This is among the highest proportions for this type of area and has climbed from 29.0% in 2011.
