Cooma Surrounds Jindabyne - Berridale

Jindabyne - Berridale and Cooma Surrounds are two distinct New South Wales areas located about 75 km apart. Jindabyne - Berridale is younger and more mobile, with a typical age of 38 and 46.2% of residents having moved in the last five years. It is also more diverse in its makeup, as 19.9% of people arrived recently from overseas and 52.4% report no religion. In contrast, Cooma Surrounds is much older, with a typical age of 50 and a higher proportion of homes owned outright (51.2% compared to 34.8%).

These differences in housing and demographics have grown since 2011, with the gap in rental rates and overseas arrivals widening over time. Despite these diverging trends, the two areas share a similar number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and almost identical rates of unemployment. They also have very similar household sizes, typically housing around 2.5 people per home, and both remain largely car-dependent in their layout.
