Lake Grace Ravensthorpe

Ravensthorpe and Lake Grace are two rural Western Australian areas with different economic and social profiles. Ravensthorpe is more transient and diverse, with 45.4% of people moving there in the last five years and 14.8% speaking a First Nations language. It is also more walkable, with a far higher share of homes within a 15-minute walk of health services (45.4% compared to 23.9% in Lake Grace) and groceries. Lake Grace is more stable and focused on farming, with 48.4% of workers in agriculture and 45.2% of homes owned outright. It has a much higher share of volunteers (37.1%) and more people working from home (20.6%).

Both areas share very similar typical household incomes, around $1,700 a week, and nearly the same number of school enrolments. They also have almost identical shares of people using another language at home. While they are alike in these ways, some gaps are shifting; the difference in the number of volunteers has narrowed since 2011, but the gap in Year 12 completion has widened.
