Suburb / Locality comparison ≈ 9.8 km apart · Kilgra profile · Lynchs Creek profile

Kilgra Lynchs Creek

Lynchs Creek and Kilgra are two sparsely populated neighbouring areas in New South Wales. Lynchs Creek is a younger place where 28.3% of people are children, and it has a much higher share of high school graduates (49.4%) and typical weekly personal incomes ($875). In contrast, Kilgra is older and has a higher share of people with long-term health conditions (36.7%), while the typical weekly personal income is much lower at $537.

Both areas have tracked similarly since 2011, remaining very rural places where every home is a separate detached house and no one uses public transport to commute. They also share the same lack of residents born overseas or those using a language other than English. While Lynchs Creek has more people living alone and a higher share of one-parent families, both sit well below the national figure for the proportion of people living alone.
