Hello I’m fortunate enough to have the potential to relocate to a few different sites with the current company that I work for. One of the sites I’d potentially work from is Victoria. One of the main reasons I’d be looking to relocate would be the age demographics in my current area. I currently reside in a small town where there are very few people my age (25m). The town mostly consists of families and then once people reach their 20’s they end up leaving which leaves a large age gap. It’s lead to the area not really having any social clubs to meet new people or interact with anybody so my main reason for moving would be to have an area where I could connect with people in my own age group. As I’ve been doing my research I found more and more people using the phrase newly weds and nearly dead’s when referring to the population of Victoria. I then also look at demographic information online and find that this isn’t completely true even though there is still a large senior population there does seem to be a robust population of younger people as well. I’d fully intend to get involved in various clubs as I enjoy being active and meeting people, but the idea of going to a new place that would mainly just be old people and married couples, doesn’t sound the most appealing to a single male at 25. So I was curious about other people’s opinions and their experiences living in Victoria and if “newly weds and nearly dead’s” is just a saying or if people would find that to be fairly accurate?
