Ashby Warregah Island

Ashby (NSW) and Warregah Island are neighbouring areas with very different populations. Ashby (NSW) is much older, with a typical resident aged 61 and 41.8% of people aged 65 and over. This higher age profile is consistent with a larger share of people needing help with daily activities (7.6%) and a higher rate of long-term health conditions (38.9%). In contrast, Warregah Island is younger and has higher typical incomes, with weekly household earnings of $1,458 compared to $1,113 in Ashby (NSW).

Both areas are car-dependent and have almost no residents who use a language other than English at home. They also share a similar lack of nearby amenities, with no residents living within a 10-minute walk of public transport or a park. While they are both largely disconnected from these services, Ashby (NSW) has a slightly higher number of schools and amenities within a short distance.
