Corunna Narooma

Narooma and Corunna are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with very different layouts. Narooma is a larger hub where life is more walkable, with 78.4% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries and a walkability score described as somewhat walkable. In contrast, Corunna is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with all homes being separate houses and a far higher share of people working from home (37.2% compared to 11.3% in Narooma). Economic profiles also differ; Corunna has a far higher share of high-earning households making $3,000 or more a week (22.2% versus 6.3% in Narooma) and more homes owned outright (85.2% versus 53.3%).

Daily life in both places shares many similarities, including typical weekly household incomes that sit just under $1,000 and almost identical numbers of schools within 3 km. Both areas also have a much higher proportion of First Nations people than the national figure. While they share these commonalities, the gap in the number of people who identify as having no religion has grown, reaching 65.1% in Corunna compared to 45.1% in Narooma.
