Darawank Tuncurry

Tuncurry and Darawank are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with very different layouts. Tuncurry is a very walkable hub where 40.6% of people live alone and the typical resident is 62. This contrasts with Darawank, which is car-dependent and has a younger typical age of 52. There are also big differences in wealth and health; 19.6% of Darawank households earn $3,000 or more a week compared to just 4.7% in Tuncurry, while Tuncurry has a far higher share of people with a long-term health condition at 46.6%.

Both areas are almost identical in the share of people who use a language other than English at home, at around 3%. They also share similar rates of outright home ownership, which sits at about 51% for both. However, they differ in how they are built; Darawank has far more separate houses and larger homes, while Tuncurry has more apartments and townhouses. This layout helps explain why Tuncurry has much better access to shops and parks within a short walk.
