The most comprehensive population count available in Australia is derived from the Census of Population and Housing conducted by the Australian Bureau of Statistics every five years. However the Census count is NOT the official population of the City of Greater Shepparton. To provide a more accurate population figure which is updated more frequently than every five years, the Australian Bureau of Statistics also produces "Estimated Resident Population" (ERP) numbers for the City of Greater Shepparton. See data notes for a detailed explanation of different population types, how they are calculated and when to use each one.

  • Shepparton, Victoria
    Full version of case study (3 of 3) featured in the Institute for the Study of Social Change’s Insight Report Nine: Regional population trends in Tasmania: Issues and options. Case study 3: Shepparton, Victoria Prepared by Institute for the Study of Social Change Researcher Nyree Pisanu Shepparton is a region in Victoria, Australia with a total population of 129,971 in 2016 (ABS, 2019). The Shepparton region includes three local government areas, including Greater Shepparton, Campaspe and Moira. In 2016, the regional city of Shepparton-Mooroopna had a population of 46,194. The Greater City of Shepparton had a population of 65,078 in 2018, with an average growth rate of 1.14% since 2011. The median age in Shepparton is 42.2 and the unemployment rate is 5.7%. In 2016, There were more births than deaths (natural increase= 557) and in-migration exceeded out- migration (net migration = 467). Therefore, natural increase is driving Shepparton’s population growth (54%). Economic profile The Shepparton region is located around 180kms north of Melbourne (Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority, 2016). The region is known as the Shepparton Irrigation Region as it is located on the banks of the Goulburn river, making it an ideal environment for food production (Goulburn Broken Catchment Management Authority, 2016). Shepparton’s top three agricultural commodities are sheep, dairy and chickens (ABS, 2019). The region is at the heart of the ‘food bowl of Australia’, also producing fruit and vegetables. The region also processes fruit, vegetables and dairy through large processing facilities for both consumption and export (Regional Development Victoria, 2015).

  • 19 October 2020 School Bus Program Inquiry Committee Secretariat Legislative Assembly, Economy and Infrastructure Committee Parl
    LC EIC Inquiry into the Use of School Buses in Rural and Regional Victoria Submission 001 19 October 2020 School Bus Program Inquiry Committee Secretariat Legislative Assembly, Economy and Infrastructure Committee Parliament of Victoria Parliament House, Spring Street EAST MELBOURNE VIC 3002 By E-mail Only: [email protected] Dear Committee Secretariat SUBMISSION TO SCHOOL BUS PROGRAM INQUIRY Greater Shepparton City Council was invited by Rod Barton MLC – Member for Eastern Metropolitan Melbourne to provide a submission to the Parliamentary Inquiry on Victoria’s School Bus Program. Greater Shepparton is the fourth largest regional municipality in Victoria with the population of 68,900 in 2020, which is forecast to grow to 83,234 by 2036. I believe that a lack of public transport options across Greater Shepparton is compounding social disadvantage and car dependency. Within Greater Shepparton, 5% of school leavers are not in the labour force or undergoing formal training or education, with 17% of children living in jobless families and 7% of people receiving long term unemployment benefits; figures that are significantly higher than the state average. Greater Shepparton’s public transport network currently inhibits the socially vulnerable from participating in society and accessing employment opportunities. Council has been advocating to the State Government to undertake a town bus network review in Shepparton and Mooroopna. The existing network has remained unchanged since 2009. Services are infrequent; running only hourly between 8am and 6pm on weekdays, with limited service on Saturdays, and no services on Sundays or public holidays. None of Shepparton or Mooroopna’s bus routes coordinate with rail services at the Shepparton Railway Station, and do not serve many of Shepparton and Mooroopna’s new growth areas and major tourist destinations.

  • Parish and Township Plan Numbers
    Parish and Township plan numbers This is a complete list of Victorian parishes and townships, together with plan numbers assigned by the Victorian Department of Crown Lands and Survey at some point between 1950 and 1970. The list has been reproduced from the Vicmap Reference Tables on the Department of Sustainability and Environment's land information website. Browse the list or use a keyword search to identify the plan number/s for a location. The plans are listed alphabetically. Townships and parishes are inter-sorted on the list. Some entries refer to locations within parishes or townships; these entries may be duplicated. The plan number can be used to locate copies of plans that PROV holds in the series VPRS 16171 Regional Land Office Plans Digitised Reference Set. For example, using the Search within a Series page on the PROV online catalogue with series number '16171' and the text '5030' will return the specific plans relating to the township of Ballarat. In this case, searching for 'Ballaarat' by name will return al the plans in the Ballarat land district, covering much of central and western Victoria. PROV does not hold copies of plans for the locations highlighted in pale yellow below. In most cases this is because parish-level plans were not created for areas such as national parks, where there were few land transactions to record. Plans showing these locations can be downloaded from the landata website under the section 'Central Plan Office Records'. 5001 Township of Aberfeldy 2016 Parish of Angora 2001 Parish of Acheron 2017

  • Heritage Open Day SATURDAY 28 OCTOBER Visit Your Heritage Free Welcome to the Greater Shepparton Heritage Open Day
    Greater Shepparton’s Heritage Open Day SATURDAY 28 OCTOBER Visit your heritage free Welcome to the Greater Shepparton Heritage Open Day. This free day has been organised by the Greater Shepparton Heritage Advisory Committee in conjunction with Council. It was inspired by ‘Open House Melbourne’ when hundreds of buildings (not only heritage places) are open. On the Greater Shepparton Heritage Open Day you can visit, FREE, over 40 places of heritage and historical significance in Greater Shepparton. Some have never been opened to the public before, and many are rarely on view. Other familiar places will come alive as you visit and hear their stories. Included are all the Museums and collections run by the historical societies: normally an entrance fee is charged. Greater Shepparton has an interesting history. Aboriginal peoples inhabited the area for thousands of generations. Europeans arrived in the mid nineteenth century, and developed a thriving agricultural economy, centred on the city of Shepparton, with many service towns. Subsequent settlement has gone on to welcome people from many corners of the world. This has resulted in a wealth of heritage places, a diverse and unique range of both buildings and sites. The Heritage Open Day will showcase many of these. There are three ways to visit our heritage place: • Many venues are opening their doors for visitors to attend independently • Bus tours • Walking tours Buses for the tours have been generously provided, free, by the Dyson Group. Printing of these booklets has been kindly donated by well-known local printers Prominent Group. The Ethnic Council of Shepparton and District has provided a bus tour to the mosques and temple in our municipality.
