Little Grove - Elleker vs Stirling Range National Park

Little Grove - Elleker and Stirling Range National Park are two very different landscapes in Western Australia. Little Grove - Elleker is a residential area with 3,679 people, 348 businesses, and 10 schools within 3 km. In contrast, Stirling Range National Park is largely non-residential with a population of zero. This results in stark differences in infrastructure; Little Grove - Elleker has 16 public transport stops and a typical annual rainfall of 954mm, while Stirling Range National Park has no transport stops and a much lower average rainfall of 488mm.

Both areas remain car-dependent, as neither has any homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. The gap in accessibility is widening, with Little Grove - Elleker seeing far more homes within walking distance of schools, parks, and public transport than the uninhabited national park.
