It is also more highly qualified, with 26.6% of adults holding a bachelor degree or higher, and 30.7% of homes earn $3,000 or more a week. In contrast, Narellan is more established and older; 15.4% of its people are aged 65 and over, compared to just 5.2% in Oran Park, and it has a much higher share of homes owned outright at 28.2%.

Both areas sit near the national figure for adults with a bachelor degree or higher, though they differ in other ways.
