    Melbourne's Welfare Recipients: A Comprehensive Ranking of Government Payment Recipients in the Region

    The number of people who receive government payments and allowances, including, but not limited to, Age Pension, JobSeeker Payment, and Youth Allowance.

    The data on welfare recipients in different suburbs can be useful for property investors and those looking to move as it provides insights into the livability of a particular area. For instance, suburbs with a high number of welfare recipients may indicate a lower socio-economic status, which could impact the demand for rental properties and the potential for capital growth. On the other hand, suburbs with a low number of welfare recipients may indicate a more affluent area with higher demand for properties. Additionally, this data can also provide insights into the social and community services available in the area, which could be important for families or individuals who rely on these services. Overall, this data can help property investors and those looking to move make informed decisions about where to invest or live based on their personal preferences and needs.     Data from 2020
