Gilgai Tingha

Tingha and Gilgai are two nearby New South Wales areas with similar total populations, but they differ in their social and economic make-up. Tingha has a much higher First Nations population at 28.6% compared to 11.5% in Gilgai, and it has far more one-parent families at 30.4%. Local access also varies; while 61.3% of Tingha homes are within a 15-minute walk of health services, no homes in Gilgai are. In contrast, Gilgai has more people who finished Year 12 (29.8% versus 19.1% in Tingha) and a higher typical household income of $1,151 per week, compared to $897 in Tingha.

Both areas have almost exactly the same share of children under 15, at around 18%. This shared family profile exists alongside other similarities, such as having nearly identical rates of volunteering and similar numbers of people per home. However, some gaps are widening or shifting; the typical age of First Nations residents is now noticeably older in Tingha than in Gilgai, with a gap of 7 years.
