East Kempsey Euroka

East Kempsey and Euroka are neighbouring areas with very different profiles. East Kempsey is more urban and diverse, with an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population of 12.4% compared to just 0.9% in Euroka. It is also a place where people are more likely to rent (34.2%) or live alone (36.6%), and has a much lower typical weekly household income of $1,116. In contrast, Euroka is more affluent, with a typical household income of $1,875 and a high rate of home ownership, as 47.5% of homes are owned outright.

Everyday life shares some common ground, as both areas have similar unemployment rates and typical personal weekly incomes. However, their layouts differ completely; East Kempsey is very walkable and has many public transport stops, while Euroka is car-dependent. These gaps in accessibility and housing are stark, with Euroka seeing far more homes with four or more bedrooms and significantly higher mortgage payments than East Kempsey.
