Burrinjuck Woolgarlo

Woolgarlo and Burrinjuck are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Woolgarlo is significantly older, with a typical resident aged 64 and 42.9% of people aged 65 and over, compared to a typical age of 48 and 10% of seniors in Burrinjuck. This older population in Woolgarlo is consistent with higher rates of long-term health conditions (40.5%) and more people providing unpaid care (24.4%). In contrast, Burrinjuck is more affluent, with a typical weekly family income of $1,937, which is far higher than the $1,125 seen in Woolgarlo.

Both areas are entirely car-dependent and have no residents under 15. While they share these similarities, the gap in their age structures is widening. Woolgarlo has become much more skewed toward seniors, while Burrinjuck has a larger share of young adults aged 25 to 44. This differs from their shared lack of public transport and basic amenities within walking distance, as both areas sit far below the national figure for accessible services.
