Allandale Bishops Bridge

Bishops Bridge and Allandale (NSW) are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Bishops Bridge has a far higher share of children under 15 (20.2%) and people providing unpaid care (18.0%). In contrast, Allandale (NSW) has a far higher share of one-parent families (24.6%) and a much higher proportion of people working from home (41.5%). There is also a significant gap in housing costs, with typical weekly rent far higher in Allandale (NSW) at $330 compared to $185 in Bishops Bridge.

Both areas sit near the national figure for people who do not identify with a religion.

While they share these traits, the two areas have diverged in some ways over time; for example, the gap in people working from home has widened since 2011.
