Hungerford Thargomindah

Thargomindah and Hungerford (NSW) are both remote areas with very different scales of activity. Thargomindah is more developed for its size, with a walkability score of 3.7 (mostly car-dependent) and roughly 67% of homes within a 15-minute walk of groceries. In contrast, Hungerford (NSW) is car-dependent and lacks these local amenities. There is also a significant difference in earnings; typical weekly household income in Hungerford (NSW) is $4,750, which is far higher than the $1,480 seen in Thargomindah.

Since 2011, these two areas have tracked similarly as sparsely populated regions where public transport is non-existent. Both have no public transport stops or routes and share a similar flat terrain. While Hungerford (NSW) is sparsely populated with only 12 people, Thargomindah is larger with 243 residents. This larger population in Thargomindah is reflected in its higher number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, who total 33.
