Bobadah Eremerang

Bobadah and Eremerang are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Bobadah is an older community where the typical resident is 43 and 10% are aged 65 or over. In contrast, Eremerang is much younger, with a typical age of 34 and a far higher share of children under 15 (23.8% compared to 13.3% in Bobadah). This age difference is reflected in family life, as couples with children are far more common in Eremerang. There is also a significant difference in identity and health; 14.3% of Eremerang residents are Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander, while none are in Bobadah. Additionally, long-term health conditions are far more common in Eremerang, with 33.3% of people reporting one.

These two areas are very alike in their basic infrastructure and typical household incomes. Both have no public transport stops or schools within 3 km, and neither has any residents born overseas or people using a language other than English at home. These shared characteristics show that while their populations differ in age and background, the daily environment for residents in both places remains very similar.
