Capel Nannup

Capel and Nannup are two Western Australian areas with very different social and economic profiles. Capel is much wealthier, with a typical weekly household income of $1,949 compared to $1,094 in Nannup. It is also younger, with a typical resident aged 38, while Nannup's typical resident is 56. This age gap is reflected in the family structures; Capel has far more people caring for children unpaid (32.2%) and larger homes, with 91.7% having three or more bedrooms. In contrast, Nannup has a much higher share of seniors, with 33.7% of people aged 65 and over, and more people living alone (31.0%).

Both areas share several traits, including a similar proportion of First Nations residents and almost identical levels of people who speak little or no English. They also have very similar rates of people with no religion and nearly the same typical weather. However, since 2011, the gaps between them have grown. The difference in typical age has widened to 18 years, and the income gap has increased, with Capel becoming far more prosperous than Nannup.
