Goorangoola St Clair

Goorangoola and St Clair (Singleton - NSW) are both sparsely populated areas. Goorangoola is significantly older, with a typical resident aged 55 compared to 36 in St Clair (Singleton - NSW). There are also large gaps in housing and finance; typical weekly rents are far higher in Goorangoola at $400, and typical weekly family incomes are well higher there at $2,666. In contrast, St Clair (Singleton - NSW) has far more people per bedroom, with a typical figure of 1.80.

These two nearby areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining very isolated from services. Both are entirely car-dependent, with no homes within a 15-minute walk of a school, park, or health service. This lack of infrastructure is consistent across both places, as neither has any public transport stops or routes.
