Goomalling Toodyay

Toodyay and Goomalling are nearby Western Australian areas with distinct profiles. Toodyay is more populous and has a much higher share of people born overseas at 21.9%, compared to 10.3% in Goomalling. There are also notable differences in local layout; Goomalling is somewhat walkable, while Toodyay is car-dependent. For example, 60.2% of Goomalling homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries, compared to just 21.8% in Toodyay. Toodyay also has a higher proportion of First Nations residents completing Year 12 at 42.2%, well above Goomalling's 25.0%.

Since 2011, the two areas have tracked differently in a few key ways. The gap in typical age has widened, with Toodyay residents now noticeably older at 54 compared to 49 in Goomalling. However, the gap in the share of volunteers and people caring for children has narrowed. Despite these shifts, the two areas remain very similar in many ways.
