Wentworth Unincorporated NSW

Unincorporated NSW and Wentworth are both sparsely populated areas of New South Wales. Unincorporated NSW has a higher share of adults working or looking for work (68.1% compared to 55.0% in Wentworth) and far more people who volunteer (29.9% versus 16.0%). It also has a more qualified workforce, with 14.6% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, compared to 11.1% in Wentworth. In contrast, Wentworth is more developed in terms of infrastructure; it has far more separate houses (92.2% versus 79.3%) and significantly more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people.

These two areas share very similar household profiles, with both having 2.5 people per home and the same typical monthly mortgage payment of $1,300. They also have nearly identical proportions of children under 15 and retirees. While they share these basics, they have diverged in other ways since 2011, with the gaps in volunteer rates, Year 12 completion, and working from home all widening.
