Junee Yass Valley

Yass Valley and Junee are two New South Wales areas with very different economic and social profiles. Yass Valley has a much wealthier and better qualified population; the typical weekly household income is $2,289, compared with $1,398 in Junee. This is consistent with Yass Valley's higher levels of education, where 27.2% of adults hold a bachelor degree or higher, while only 9.5% do in Junee. Yass Valley also sees far more people with no religion (40.9%) and a much higher share of households earning $3,000 or more a week (35.0% versus 14.4% in Junee).

Since 2011, the gaps between these two areas have generally widened. The difference in typical household income has grown from $730 to $891, and the gap in university qualifications has also increased. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas remain similar in some ways. They have almost the same number of First Nations residents and very similar rates of full-time employment. Junee does offer more convenient living in some areas, with far more homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport (64.2%) than in Yass Valley (34.0%).
