Bald Hills Broadwater

Bald Hills (NSW) and Broadwater (Bega Valley - NSW) are neighbouring areas in the Bega Valley with very different lifestyles. Broadwater is an older community, with a typical resident aged 51 compared to 44 in Bald Hills (NSW). It is also more walkable, with 38.1% of homes within a 10-minute walk of public transport and 29.8% within a 15-minute walk of groceries, while Bald Hills (NSW) has no such amenities. In contrast, Bald Hills (NSW) has a higher share of adults working or looking for work (65.7% compared to 54.1%) and more people earning $2,000 or more a week (12.2% versus 5.7%).

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining very similar in terms of typical family and personal incomes. They also share a total lack of residents who speak little or no English and a common reliance on cars, as no homes in either area are without a motor vehicle. This shared experience is consistent across the region, as both areas sit well below the national figure for the share of people who live in homes within a 15-minute-city walkshed.
