Carnamah Moora

Moora and Carnamah are two rural Western Australian areas with different population profiles. Moora is larger and has a much higher proportion of First Nations people, at 12.8%. It is also a younger place, with 19.2% of people under 15, compared to 13.8% in Carnamah. A key contrast exists in First Nations households; in Carnamah, typical income is far higher at $1,624, and 22.7% of people speak a First Nations language, while in Moora, typical income is much lower at $1,012 and only 4.4% speak such a language.

Since 2011, the two areas have drifted further apart in several ways, with the gaps widening for those who have completed Year 12 and the number of households earning $3,000 or more per week. Despite these shifts, they share a few common traits, such as having the same share of people using another language at home (3.6%) and a similar typical weekly family income. Both areas also sit well above the national figure for the share of people aged 65 and over.
