Ooma Piney Range

Piney Range and Ooma are both sparsely populated areas in New South Wales. They differ sharply in age and family life; Ooma is much younger, with a typical resident aged 30 and 29.3% of the population being children. Piney Range is far older, with a typical age of 44 and 14.3% of people aged 65 and over. These demographics are reflected in the homes, as couples with children are far more common in Ooma, while one-parent families are far more common in Piney Range. Income also varies, with typical weekly household income well higher in Ooma at $2,666 compared to $1,687 in Piney Range.

Both areas share a total lack of public transport and no homes within walking distance of parks, schools or shops. They are also identical in having no residents who use a language other than English at home. This similarity in remoteness exists even as some gaps between them shift, such as the share of people who moved in the last five years, which is far higher in Piney Range (+22 pts gap).
