Hi Jo
i think you may have misunderstoood the purpose of these documents. they list regional areas and low population areas of the metro areas. It doesn’t list low growth regional areas as i think you were thinking.
to prove my point some of these postcodes are of the fastest growing areas in Victoria are in that list eg
Echuca 3564
Mildura 3500
Bellerine Peninsular -Ocean Grove 3226,
leopold 3224

I have edited my thread heading accordingly, but as you are aware, the length of same is limited and in trying to fit in as much as possible, it may have given the wrong impression!!!

I didn’t think that it did or didn’t.
Thanks Westan, but I didn’t misunderstand the figures; I know what they were referring to, and my only reason for posting the link was strictly as a FYI source for people’s interest. I am fully aware of growth of the areas you mentioned….no need to convince me; I’m in agreeance with you!!!
Cheers,
Jo

Hi Jo
then since you are aware, i’ll explain it to others- those figures are useful only for immigrants trying to get extra points for working in regional areas.
I’m not sure how it would be of any help to us here? perhaps you could explain it to me.
thanks westan

I understand your point Westan, and yes it has no “concrete” bearing, however, immigrants (or otherwise) working/studying in these areas can help boost the area’s economy, even if it is only a miniscule amount (ie. increase rental demand).
I didn’t think it would cause such confusion; as I assumed most people actually read the contents of links provided, and in doing so, they would make some sort of (albeit small) connection.[blink]
Cheers,
Jo
