Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 12 km apart · Edith profile · Norway profile

Edith Norway

Edith (NSW) and Norway are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Edith (NSW) is more likely to have children, with 21.7% of its residents under 15, while Norway has none. The population in Norway is far older, with a typical resident aged 65 and 43.1% of people aged 65 or over. These two areas also differ in income and education; Edith (NSW) has a far higher share of people who completed Year 12 (43.1% compared to 17.2% in Norway) and more households earning $3,000 or more a week.

Both areas are almost identical in their housing and transport, as every home in both Edith (NSW) and Norway is a separate house and no one uses public transport. They both sit far above the national figure for homes owned outright. Life in Norway is more likely to be spent alone, with 62.1% of people living alone compared to 38.3% in Edith (NSW).
