Bargo Tahmoor

Tahmoor and Bargo are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with distinct local characters. Tahmoor is notably younger, with a typical resident aged 34 compared to 41 in Bargo, and has a much higher share of renters at 31.5% against 17.1% in Bargo. Tahmoor also sees more movement, with 45.3% of people moving in the last five years, while only 27.8% of Bargo residents did the same. This mobility is reflected in the layout, as Tahmoor has far more street intersections per square kilometre and more homes within a 15-minute walk of a park.

These differences are widening as Tahmoor grows and attracts more new arrivals. Despite this, the two areas remain very alike in other ways, such as their typical household incomes of around $1,730 a week and similar rates of people born overseas. Both areas also have about the same number of schools within 3 kilometres, though Bargo has a far higher number of schools per 1,000 children.
