Berry Toolijooa

Berry and Toolijooa are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with very different layouts. Berry is a larger, somewhat walkable hub where the typical resident is 57 and 38.7% of people are aged 65 or over. In contrast, Toolijooa is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with a younger typical age of 47. There is a significant gap in wealth and housing, as typical weekly family income is far higher in Toolijooa at $3,583 compared to $2,050 in Berry, and 100% of Toolijooa's homes are separate houses.

These two areas have tracked differently over time, and the gap in age is widening, with residents now far older in Berry. Despite this, they share some similarities, such as having almost no residents who speak little or no English and similar rates of full-time employment. While Berry provides easy access to shops and public transport, Toolijooa has a much higher share of people working from home at 42%.
