Katanning Plantagenet
Plantagenet and Katanning are two distinct rural areas in Western Australia. Plantagenet is far older, with a typical resident aged 48 compared to 39 in Katanning. It also has a higher share of people who own their homes outright (44.7% versus 33.0%) and a larger proportion who report no religion (47.8% versus 35.3%). In contrast, Katanning is more diverse, with a much higher share of people using another language at home (19.4% versus 6.3%) and a higher number of recent arrivals from overseas (18.0% versus 6.8%).
Both areas sit near the national average for overall advantage. Despite this, their daily environments differ; Katanning is somewhat walkable and many homes are within 15 minutes of schools and health services, while Plantagenet is car-dependent. The age gap between the two has widened since 2011, and the difference in home ownership has also grown.
