How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Very few people in Maffra (NSW) reported volunteering or providing unpaid care in the latest census. This sparsity in community activity is most striking in the care roles, where the typical resident is much more likely to spend their time on housework than caring for others.
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
No residents in Maffra reported volunteering, which is far below the New South Wales figure of 13.0% and among the lowest rates for similar areas.
