Tumut Surrounds Namadgi

Tumut Surrounds and Namadgi are both sparsely populated areas, though they differ sharply in age and wealth. Tumut Surrounds is much older, with a typical resident aged 47 and 23.3% of people aged 65 and over. In contrast, Namadgi is far younger, with a typical age of 27 and a high share of children under 15 at 28.6%. There is also a significant income gap; the typical weekly household income in Namadgi is $2,812, which is far higher than the $1,390 usually earned in Tumut Surrounds.

Everyday life in both places is mostly car-dependent, and they share a similar overall level of advantage compared to other Australian areas. However, the two areas are drifting further apart in some ways. The gap in typical ages has widened to 20 years since 2016, and the difference in household incomes has also grown. While both areas have very few people who speak little or no English, Tumut Surrounds remains more focused on volunteering and agriculture, while Namadgi has seen a larger rise in one-parent families.
