Goodnight Kenley

Goodnight and Kenley are both sparsely populated areas located about 11 km apart. Goodnight is a more family-oriented place, with children under 15 making up 24.4% of residents and 18.6% aged 65 and over. In contrast, Kenley has a much higher proportion of people born overseas (64.1%) and those who use a language other than English at home (64.1%). Income also differs sharply, with a typical weekly household income of $2,562 in Kenley compared to $1,375 in Goodnight.

Everyday life in both areas is very similar in its reliance on cars, as both are car-dependent and have no homes within walking distance of public transport, parks, schools or shops. This shared lack of local amenities is consistent across both places. While Kenley has seen a large influx of new residents with 60% moving in during the last five years, Goodnight remains more stable, with only 8.6% of people arriving in that time.
