It is a place where people are more likely to live alone (43.4%) and own their homes outright (55.6%). Garoo is much younger, with a typical age of 40, and has far higher typical weekly incomes of $1,624 compared to $764 in Nundle. In Garoo, more people are in de facto relationships (22.9%) and a much larger share of adults are working or looking for work (79.7%).

Both areas are almost identical when it comes to the typical weekly rent, which is around $250 to $266. They also share a total lack of public transport stops and departures. This car-dependent lifestyle is common to both, though Nundle is slightly more walkable and has more shops and parks within a 15-minute walk.
