Coonamble Dubbo Regional

Dubbo Regional and Coonamble are two New South Wales areas with very different scales and levels of access. Dubbo Regional is a larger hub where 77.3% of homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport, compared to just 29.5% in Coonamble. There is a significant gap in resources and education; Dubbo Regional has a far higher share of adults with a bachelor degree (17.0% versus 9.7%) and a much higher typical monthly home loan payment of $1,517, while the usual payment in Coonamble is $867. Coonamble has a much larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population at 33.9%, compared to 16.6% in Dubbo Regional.

Everyday life in both places shares many commonalities, such as similar proportions of children under 15 and nearly identical rates of full-time employment. Both areas also have about the same number of people per home and similar levels of long-term health conditions. While they share these basics, the gaps in infrastructure are stark, with Dubbo Regional having far more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people.
