Mebul Twelve Mile

Mebul and Twelve Mile are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Mebul has a much older population, with 32.8% aged 65 and over compared to 16.0% in Twelve Mile. Twelve Mile is wealthier, where the typical weekly personal income is $899, far higher than the $474 seen in Mebul. Education levels also differ, with 47.6% of Twelve Mile residents completing Year 12, while the figure is 26.4% in Mebul.

Both areas are effectively alike in that they have no residents born overseas or people using a language other than English at home. This shared lack of linguistic diversity exists alongside a wide gap in income and age that has remained distinct. While Mebul has more children and a higher share of one-parent families, Twelve Mile has seen a much higher proportion of people moving in over the last five years.
