Mornington Peninsula ShireCommunity profile

Shoreham

Locality snapshots

Shoreham had a total population of 679 and 584 dwellings in 2021.

Locality snapshots are summary profiles of all populated localities in Mornington Peninsula Shire for the latest Census year only. These are based on ABS "Suburb and Locality" boundaries, which are close approximations to official gazetted locality boundaries in 2021. The snapshots are designed to give summary population details and characteristics for much smaller geographies than the main Community Profile areas.

The main Community Profile areas are listed in the profile areas section, and available as an "Area" drop-down on most pages. These areas offer much more detailed information; they tend to be larger geographies than locality snapshots to allow meaningful change-over-time comparison.

Localities shown on this page may extend outside the boundaries of Mornington Peninsula Shire; the data given relates to the whole locality, not just the area inside Mornington Peninsula Shire. The full range of characteristics are available for localities with more than 50 people. Localities with less than 50 people are too small to provide this detail, so just show population (total, males, females) and total dwellings.

How do the locality boundaries differ from the main small areas used in profile.id? See our data notes for more information.
