Capel Dardanup

Capel and Dardanup are nearby Western Australian areas with similar populations and sizes. Capel is generally more qualified and wealthier, with a higher share of adults holding a bachelor degree (17.2% compared to 11.6% in Dardanup) and more households earning $3,000 or more a week (22.0% versus 19.0%). Dardanup is more accessible by transport and health services, with far more public transport stops per 1,000 people (4.83 versus 2.53) and a much higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services (29.3% compared to 7.3%).

Since 2011, the two areas have seen several gaps between them narrow, including the difference in Year 12 completion and the number of people who have moved recently. They share a similar social makeup, with nearly identical proportions of First Nations people, those who speak little or no English, and people with no religion. Both areas also rely heavily on detached houses, which are far more common here than the national figure.
