Albany Kojonup

Albany and Kojonup are two different types of Western Australian hubs. Albany is a very walkable area where typical weekly rents are far higher at $300 compared to $179 in Kojonup. Albany is also more mobile, with 42.7% of people moving there in the last five years, while only 27.2% of Kojonup residents did the same. In contrast, Kojonup is car-dependent, with a much higher share of people working from home (19.7% versus 5.2%) and a larger proportion of detached houses at 95.8%.

Both areas sit near the national figure for overall advantage. They are also very similar in the proportion of people who provide unpaid care and those who have served in the Defence Force. While these similarities exist, some gaps are shifting; for example, the difference in typical rent has narrowed since 2011. Residents in Albany have also become noticeably older than those in Kojonup over that same period.
