Gungalman Walgett

Walgett and Gungalman are two very different New South Wales areas. Walgett is a larger centre where the typical resident is 35 and many people can walk to schools, shops, and health services. In contrast, Gungalman is sparsely populated and car-dependent, with a much older typical resident of 49. There are also significant financial differences: the typical weekly household income in Gungalman is $2,249, which is well higher than the $1,554 seen in Walgett, while typical monthly home-loan payments in Gungalman are far higher at $5,000 compared to $970 in Walgett.

The gap in typical home-loan payments is particularly large, as Gungalman's figure is among the highest for its area type. Both places share a similar flat landscape, with very low average terrain slopes. While Walgett has more public transport and services, Gungalman has a higher number of walkable amenities per 1,000 residents, although these are exclusively parks.
