Coila Wamban

Wamban and Coila are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Wamban has a larger population of 120 people and is far more likely to have children, with 15.0% under age 15 compared to none in Coila. Wamban also has a much higher share of adults working or looking for work (60.8% versus 31.8%) and a higher typical weekly household income of $1,291, while Coila's is $900. Education levels differ sharply, with 46.5% of Wamban residents completing Year 12 compared to just 19.5% in Coila.

These two areas are effectively alike in their lack of nearby amenities, as no homes in either place are within a 15-minute walk of a school, park, or grocery store. However, a gap in public transport is widening, with Coila having far more public transport stops and departures per 1,000 people than Wamban. Both areas are far older than the national figure, though this is even more pronounced in Coila, where the typical resident is 60.
