Catalina Nelligen

Catalina and Nelligen are two nearby areas with very different layouts. Catalina is a more populated hub where 96.3% of homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport, and 47% of homes can reach a school on foot. In contrast, Nelligen is more spread out, with 98% of homes being separate houses and a much longer typical walk to a transport stop. There are also notable differences in who lives here: Catalina has a larger First Nations population at 9.2%, while Nelligen has a higher share of adults working or looking for work at 54%.

These two areas have tracked closely since 2011, as they share a similar typical resident age of 53. They are also alike in their typical weekly household incomes, which sit around $1,130 to $1,148. While Catalina has far more public transport options and a higher rental rate of 23.5%, both areas have a similar proportion of people born overseas. This shared demographic profile exists even though Nelligen is much more likely to have homes with three or more vehicles.
