Patonga Umina Beach

Umina Beach and Patonga are neighbouring areas with very different characters. Umina Beach is a larger, very walkable hub where 18.1% of residents are children and 32.9% of households rent. In contrast, Patonga is a sparsely populated area that is mostly car-dependent, with a much older population; the typical resident is 65 and 53.6% of people are aged 65 and over. This age gap is reflected in the homes, as 60.4% of Patonga residents own their homes outright compared to 33.6% in Umina Beach.

These two places share some common ground, including similar typical weekly incomes and nearly identical shares of people born overseas. However, the gap in working arrangements is widening, with 50% of Patonga residents working from home compared to 29.2% in Umina Beach. While both areas sit well above the national figure for people aged 65 and over, Patonga's share is far higher than that of Umina Beach.
