“Having the primary school up the road, we are getting a lot of younger families moving in the area.
“You’re only realistically 20 minutes to Epworth and Deakin, so you’ve actually got a lot of people working in the university system and the health area at Epworth.”

“Because Geelong is moving into a health and government town, you are getting a lot of professional families moving away from Melbourne to live down here.”
