Community Participation in Eucumbene

How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.

A huge gap exists between Eucumbene and the rest of the state in how people contribute to their community. While 24.1% of residents volunteer—far above the national figure of 14.1%—almost no one in the area provides unpaid care or child care. This creates a unique profile where community spirit is high, but domestic care duties are very low.
