Neurea Suntop

Neurea and Suntop are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. Neurea is generally older, with a typical resident aged 51 and 21.7% of people aged 65 and over. In contrast, Suntop has a much younger feel, with 27.9% of its population being children under 15, compared to just 8.5% in Neurea. This difference is reflected in the home life of each area; half of the people in Suntop provide unpaid childcare, which is far higher than the 21.7% in Neurea.

While these areas are nearby, they have drifted apart in some ways, such as the gap in religious affiliation where Neurea has a far higher share of people with no religion (25.6%) compared to Suntop (4.9%). Despite these shifts, they remain very similar in other ways. Both have the same proportion of people using other languages at home (0%) and similar typical weekly family incomes, around $2,300. They also both lack public transport and any amenities within a 15-minute walk.
