Dhulura vs Downside

Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 6.6 km apart · Dhulura profile · Downside profile

Dhulura Downside

Downside and Dhulura are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. They differ sharply in age and education; the typical resident in Downside is far older at 46, while the typical person in Dhulura is just 30. Dhulura is more highly qualified, with 43.3% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher compared to 22.2% in Downside. This is reflected in pay, with 30% of people in Dhulura earning $2,000 or more a week, whereas that figure is 11.1% in Downside.

Both areas have tracked in similar directions since 2011, remaining largely residential with very little walkability. They are alike in that nobody uses a language other than English at home and neither has an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population. While Dhulura has a much higher typical weekly rent of $360 compared to $185 in Downside, both areas have very few public transport stops and are far from the national figure for those who use public transport to commute.
