Mulla Creek Woolbrook

Woolbrook and Mulla Creek are two sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. They differ sharply in their age profiles and home ownership. Mulla Creek is much older, with a typical resident aged 53 and 31.0% of people aged 65 and over, compared to a typical age of 44 and 15.3% of seniors in Woolbrook. Living arrangements also vary; Woolbrook has a far higher share of renters at 22.0% and more people living alone (28.8%), while Mulla Creek is dominated by mortgages and larger households, with 19.8% more homes containing four people.

These two places share a similar typical weekly personal income and almost identical rates of people born overseas. They are also both entirely car-dependent, with no one commuting by public transport and no residents within a 15-minute walk of groceries or health services. This lack of local infrastructure is common to both, though Woolbrook has slightly more walkability with a few more homes near a park or school.
