Pingelly Wickepin

Pingelly and Wickepin are both small Western Australian towns, but they offer very different living environments. Pingelly is more walkable (somewhat walkable) and has a higher share of homes within reach of groceries, parks, and health services, while Wickepin is mostly car-dependent. There is a notable gap in health and demographics: 37.0% of Pingelly residents have a long-term health condition, compared to 26.2% in Wickepin. Pingelly also has a larger First Nations population, where residents are far older and more likely to speak a First Nations language.

Both towns are very similar in their housing styles, with nearly all residents living in separate houses. They also share a similar proportion of people who do not have a religion. While they share these traits, other gaps are widening; for example, the difference in the share of adults working or looking for work has grown since 2011, and Wickepin now has a far higher share of three-plus bedroom homes. This higher home size in Wickepin is consistent with a larger share of children under 15 compared to Pingelly.
