Bendigo's Loneliest Suburbs: Isolation Rates Revealed in Latest Health Survey
The proportion of people who reported that they spoke to less than 5 people in the past day on the Victorian Population Health Survey.
The Isolation data could be useful for property investors and those looking to move as it provides insight into the social connectedness of a suburb. A low isolation score could indicate a more tight-knit community, which may be desirable for those seeking a sense of belonging and social support. On the other hand, a high isolation score may suggest a more isolated and disconnected community, which may not be as appealing for those seeking a vibrant and socially active neighborhood. This data could also be useful for those interested in the livability of a suburb, as social connectedness is an important aspect of overall well-being. For example, families with young children may prioritize neighborhoods with a strong sense of community and social support, while young professionals may prefer areas with a more active social scene.
