Marrangaroo Oakey Park

Marrangaroo and Oakey Park are neighbouring areas in New South Wales with very different profiles. Marrangaroo is wealthier, with a typical household income of $2,283 a week compared to $1,037 in Oakey Park. This is reflected in the housing, where 94.4% of Marrangaroo homes have three or more bedrooms, far higher than the 72.0% seen in Oakey Park. Marrangaroo also has a younger population, with a typical resident aged 38, while the typical person in Oakey Park is far older at 48.

These two areas share some similarities, such as the fact that every single home in both places is a separate house.
