Suburb profile
Mordialloc is a coastal established suburb where beach life and relaxed outdoor living shape the local character. Residents are mostly families and working professionals, with a strong presence of young families throughout. Many residents were born overseas or speak a language other than English at home.
Schooling is a clear local strength compared with many peer areas. Parks and open space are a real strength relative to many coastal suburbs, easy for walks, sport and weekend downtime. Most routine trips are on foot, while buses and trains cover longer journeys across the metro area.
Property sits in a premium price band and is harder to enter for many buyers. Reported crime has been falling recently.
Desirability rates excellent overall, led by stronger community and employment, plus growth momentum compared with similar coastal suburbs.

ABS Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas (SEIFA), 2021 release — the latest available, derived from the 2021 Census. Deciles rank suburbs nationally from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).
IRSAD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Advantage and Disadvantage. Combines indicators of advantage (e.g. high income, skilled occupations) and disadvantage. Higher decile = more advantaged relative to other Australian areas.
IRSD — Index of Relative Socio-economic Disadvantage. Focuses on disadvantage only (e.g. low income, unemployment, limited education). Higher decile = less disadvantage nationally.
A new SEIFA edition typically follows each census; the ABS has not announced a release date beyond 2021.
