Kootingal Limbri

Kootingal and Limbri are two nearby New South Wales areas with very different characters. Kootingal is a larger hub where the typical resident is 38, while Limbri is a sparsely populated area where residents are far older, with a typical age of 53. Kootingal is far more walkable and has more services, with 65.8% of homes within a 15-minute walk of a school. In contrast, Limbri is car-dependent and has a much higher share of homes owned outright at 61.9%.

These two areas have tracked similarly since 2011, maintaining a consistent gap in their overall layout and demographics. They share some common ground in their housing and education, with both having the same share of adults with a bachelor degree or higher at 10.9%. They also have an identical average household size of 2.5 people.
