Kariong Wyoming

Wyoming and Kariong are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. Wyoming is a much older community, with 23.1% of people aged 65 and over and a typical resident aged 41. It has a higher share of people living alone (28.1%) and a typical weekly household income of $1,430. In contrast, Kariong is younger, with a typical age of 36, and far wealthier, with typical weekly incomes of $2,200 and a much higher share of households earning $3,000 or more per week (27.4%). Kariong also has more large homes, with 95.4% having three or more bedrooms.

Income levels have diverged further since 2011, with the typical weekly pay gap widening from $440 to $770. Despite this, both areas share similar levels of university education, with around 18% to 19% of adults holding a bachelor's degree. They also have very similar proportions of residents born overseas (around 19%) and people who have served in the Defence Force. While Kariong has more schools and better access to health services, Wyoming is the only one of the two where a meaningful number of homes are within a 15-minute walk of groceries.
