Bogan Gilgandra

Gilgandra and Bogan are two regional New South Wales areas with distinct profiles. Bogan has a higher typical family income of $1,931 compared to $1,384 in Gilgandra, and it is far more likely to have households earning over $3,000 a week. Bogan also shows much higher rates of crime, particularly for burglary and motor vehicle theft. In contrast, Gilgandra is an older area, where the typical resident is 46 and 24.2% of people are aged 65 or over, compared to a typical age of 41 and 20.2% of seniors in Bogan.

Daily life is similar in both places, with almost identical shares of people living alone, homes owned outright, and households with three or more bedrooms. They also have very similar proportions of children under 15 and adults with a bachelor degree. However, some gaps have widened since 2011, such as the difference in Year 12 completion rates and the typical family income, with Bogan moving further ahead in both measures.
