Colongra San Remo

San Remo (NSW) and Colongra are neighbouring areas with very different layouts. San Remo (NSW) is a residential hub of 4,434 people where most homes are within a 10-minute walk of public transport and a 15-minute walk of a park. In contrast, Colongra is sparsely populated and largely non-residential, with a walkability score that makes it car-dependent compared to San Remo (NSW), which is somewhat walkable. San Remo (NSW) also has far more street connectivity and a much larger Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population.

While the two areas are quite different, they share a similar terrain slope and nearly identical average school advantage scores. These similarities stand out as the gap in accessibility remains wide, with San Remo (NSW) having far more public transport stops and a much shorter walk to the nearest stop than Colongra.
