Bungendore Tarago

Bungendore and Tarago are nearby New South Wales areas with very different profiles. Bungendore is a larger, wealthier hub where the typical household earns $2,922 a week, compared to $2,027 in Tarago. It is a somewhat walkable area with more public transport stops and a much higher share of people who finished Year 12 (67.0% versus 49.1% in Tarago). In contrast, Tarago is car-dependent, though it has a far higher share of recent overseas arrivals at 15.2%.

These differences in local infrastructure and income levels have remained stark since 2011. Both areas share similar health profiles, with about 28% of residents living with a long-term health condition. They also have almost identical shares of people using another language at home and those who served in the Defence Force.
