Bombah Point Bulahdelah

Bulahdelah and Bombah Point are two very different neighbours in New South Wales. Bulahdelah is a larger community where 13.9% of people are children and 31.9% are seniors, while Bombah Point is sparsely populated with no children or seniors. Financial gaps are stark; the typical weekly household income in Bombah Point is $2,749, which is far higher than the $963 seen in Bulahdelah. Bulahdelah is also much more walkable, with many homes within a 15-minute walk of parks and health services, while Bombah Point is car-dependent.

Both areas are very similar in that almost no one speaks a language other than English. While they differ in most areas, the two places share a similar housing density, with 0.70 people per bedroom. This contrast in lifestyles is sharp, as Bulahdelah has a much higher rate of people needing help with daily activities and long-term health conditions compared to the very few residents of Bombah Point.
